Azerbaijan has been ranked 67th out of 89 countries in the latest global education ranking, reflecting a slight decline compared to the previous assessment, AzerNEWS reports.

According to the survey, which covered around 17,000 respondents across Europe and North America, Azerbaijan dropped one position from 66th place in 2023.

The top positions in the ranking are held by leading developed countries, including the United States, United Kingdom, Germany, Canada, and France, followed by Switzerland, Japan, Australia, Sweden, and Denmark.

At the lower end of the ranking are mostly developing nations such as Honduras, Guatemala, Zimbabwe, Uzbekistan, Cambodia, Myanmar, Bangladesh, Cameroon, Panama, and Kazakhstan.
