This year, Restaurant Pavus, where Marko Pav\u010dnik creates, received a Michelin star for the first time.<\/div><\/div><\/div><p>To mark Statehood Day, the Statistical Office of the Republic of Slovenia published its <em>100% Slovenia<\/em> report, highlighting the country&#8217;s social and economic progress over the past 35 years. Among the most notable achievements is the significant improvement in educational attainment.<\/p><p>The latest data show that the share of the population with tertiary education has increased substantially since 1991, while the proportion of people with the lowest levels of educational attainment has steadily declined. During this period, Slovenia has significantly expanded access to both upper secondary and higher education, contributing to a more highly educated population.<\/p><p>According to the Statistical Office, rising educational attainment is one of the country&#8217;s most important social developments since independence. A better-educated population not only improves individuals&#8217; employment prospects but also strengthens economic productivity and supports the long-term development of society.<\/p><p>Thirty-five years after gaining independence, Slovenia celebrates not only a historic milestone but also the remarkable progress it has achieved in education and other areas of national development.
