Moldova advances legal recognition and educational reforms

Moldova has approved accession to the Hague Judgments Convention, introduced education leadership reforms, and recorded an 18% drop in wage arrears.
Moldova is advancing several domestic and international initiatives alongside ongoing labor market shifts. Parliament approved in its first reading the country's accession to the 2019 Hague Judgments Convention, allowing domestic civil and commercial court rulings to be recognized and enforced across participating nations, including European Union member states.
In public administration, the Ministry of Education introduced the "Restart în educație" reform to curb bureaucracy and raise regional agency leadership salaries by up to 40%. Concurrently, labor data shows that employer wage arrears dropped by 18% in 2025 to over 165 million lei, affecting around 10,800 workers, primarily in transport.
Additionally, the Diaspora Sentiment 2026 report identified Moldova as a key source of young human capital for Romania, noting that 49% of Moldovan respondents belong to Generation Z.
