Uzbekistan : Green economy support program

The transition to a greener economy is a long-term process. AFD’s program will be based on a 5 years period (2022-2026). During this period, AFD will be financing a series of three concessional loans, the sums of which will be made available to the Uzbek Treasury depending on the progress actively achieved.A technical cooperation program will simultaneously support the Uzbek institutions in their formulation of strategical framework, its translation in public finances (environmental tax, sustainable governance of public companies, green budget) and its translation in sectorial policies and programs (renewable energies, water management, biodiversity).The sub-program n°1 -first of the three loans- aims structural measures such as the adoption of the new strategical framework, the implementation of fiscal measures to encourage clean transport or integration of environmental criteria in public procurement. This funding will soon be complemented by European funds delegated to AFD.
