Are the marshall islands an MEDC or LEDC?

Answer 1

The Marshall Islands Ministry of Education operates the state schools in the Marshall Islands however there are only 2 colleges operating in the Marshall Islands. There are 68,000 people living in the Marshall Islands. Most of these are Marshallese.There is hardly any large industry in the Marshall Islands however there are some small scale industries such as handicrafts, fish processing, and copra. This makes the Islands and LEDC as they have very little education for the population, not much industry, not many jobs and a large population for small Islands (An MEDC would be easily able to afford more education, more jobs, larger industry and contraception).

Answer 2

The Marshall Islands are considered a developing country and are classified as a Less Economically Developed Country (LEDC) due to challenges such as limited infrastructure, high dependence on external aid, and vulnerability to climate change impacts.
