Uzbekistan has launched two major international projects worth $6.5mn to kick off the “Year of Environmental Protection and Green Economy.” The initiatives, hosted at the Central Asian University for Environmental Studies and Climate Change, are part of the country’s broader commitment to sustainability and environmental preservation. 

The projects, carried out in partnership with the Ministry of Ecology, Environmental Protection and Climate Change and the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP), are funded by the Global Environment Facility (GEF) and will run until 2030.

The first initiative, Comprehensive Programme to Support the Renewal of the National Biodiversity Strategy and Action Plan (NBSAP) and the Seventh National Report, is part of a global effort that involves 69 countries, including Uzbekistan. The project aims to update national biodiversity strategies and prepare the seventh national biodiversity reports. Uzbekistan’s updated NBSAP will align with the Global Biodiversity Framework, setting new national targets based on global standards.
