The Correlation between education and economic development in Somalia

Abstract

In this study I will analyze the correlation between earnings and education in Somalia, study will also consider variables that might have an influence on income other than education such as experience, gender and health problems. The research paper will empathize and explore the correlation between educational attainment and the level of earnings. Moreover, the research paper will also try to find whether there are other factors that have an effect on earning-Education correlation. The study will use cross sectional data from World Bank (WB), United Nations Fund for Population Fund (UNFPA), Ministry of National Planning and International Cooperation(MNPIC) and Kimetrica. The method of choosing the who is going to take part in this study is going to be simplified. The data will be analyzed by using SPSS, multiple regression analysis, Pearson correlation test and other econometric tests will be conducted.  This cross-sectional research paper is subject to change if more advanced and highly structured but a similar research shows a different result related to income-education correlation. Such changes can be led by the improvement in education system, government policies related to minimum wages and sometimes but not always the gender distribution of the population.
