General Information

The Uzbekistan project is part of the World Bank RESILAND CA+ Programme, whose goal is to increase the resilience of regional landscapes in Central Asia, alongside the RESILAND CA+ projects in Tajikistan and the Kyrgyz Republic, which share similar national and regional objectives.

Strengthening regional collaboration will help Uzbekistan and its neighbours manage shared resources, exploit economies of scale related to regional nature-based tourism, and facilitate collective action to address climate change impacts and other common goals. The Regional Knowledge Exchange Platform allows Uzbekistan, together with other Central Asian countries, to benefit from capacity-building, technical assistance, and collaboration with regional stakeholders and international partners.
