São Tomé and Príncipe has achieved important development gains in electrification, education, internet access, and poverty reduction, culminating in its graduation from the world’s poorest-country category and recognition as a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve. However, declining foreign aid, the absence of oil revenues, fiscal pressures, and an ongoing energy crisis have weakened economic growth and living standards. The country faces additional risks from climate change, external shocks, and global conflicts that threaten tourism, trade, and price stability. The report highlights the need for fiscal discipline, energy sector reforms, improved infrastructure, stronger social protection, and private investment to achieve sustainable growth, job creation, and poverty reduction.
