Country Assistance Plans - Kyrgyz Republic

VIII. Economic and Sector Work Program

49. The proposed economic and sector work (ESW) is focused on assisting the Government in developing and implementing policy and institutional reforms in the education, financial, road, power, and social sectors. Cross-cutting issues such as environmental management will also be analyzed. The second phase of the regional economic technical assistance for the governments of the Kyrgyz Republic, Kazakhstan, the People’s Republic of China, and Uzbekistan (see para. 41) will also constitute an important item of ESW during the current year. However an item of ESW that requires special mention is assistance to the Government in formulating a National Poverty Reduction Strategy NSPR (see para. 23). Studies supported by the ADB for this purpose will assist the Government to (i) better understand the profile of the poor; and (ii) identify obstacles and bottlenecks for effective poverty reduction. It will also support the Government in consultative and participatory processes to ensure that the vision of poverty reduction addresses civil society demands and is shared by the population of the country. Another important item of ESW arising out of consultations to enhance collaboration among MDBs is for ADB to work together with the World Bank and EBRD in developing a governance strategy for the Kyrgyz Republic.
