Project Description

TCL has been commissioned to undertake a key poverty reduction Study in Uzbekistan. The Study will provide a platform for the ADB's lending strategy to the Country. The goal of the Study is to assist the Government to prepare a medium-term strategy to reduce poverty and improve the living standards of the Uzbek people, with a particular emphasis on low-income, vulnerable and socially excluded groups of society. The Study will produce a range of outputs including:
i. a medium-term living standards strategy
ii. monitoring/evaluation mechanisms to track the Government's progress in relation to the effectiveness of poverty reduction policies; and
iii. an enhanced capability of key policy makers on pro-poor growth strategies and social policy.
