United Nations in Kyrgyzstan Annual Results Report 2023
Dear partners and colleagues, I am pleased to present this Annual Results Report 2023 of the United Nations Country Team (UNCT) in the Kyrgyz Republic. This is the first report under the new United Nations Sustainable Development Cooperation Framework (UNSDCF) 2023-2027. It showcases the collective work of the UNCT, in partnership with the Government of the Kyrgyz Republic, in the implementation of Kyrgyzstan’s national development priorities and progress towards achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The Report presents progress made in all four priority areas outlined in the UNSDCF. As the UN system entered into the first year of implementation of the Cooperation Framework, in partnership with the Government and many other counterparts, it enhanced coordination, increased alignment with national priorities and strengthened human rights-based approaches to programming and evidence- based policy advice. During 2023, the Kyrgyz Republic continued to contribute to global development debates and processes. Underlining the country’s strong commitment to the SDGs, the President presented two transformative national commitments at the SDG Summit in September 2023: Inclusive quality education and the green economy, both underpinning reducing poverty and inequality as key priorities. In 2023, the Kyrgyz Republic also participated at the 28th Conference of the Parties (COP28) of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC), reaffirming the Government’s commitment to carbon neutrality by 2050 and, initiating an expert dialogue on mountains and climate change within the COP framework. Building on this momentum, the UNCT will continue supporting Government’s participation in COP 29 and the Summit of the Future and work in partnership with the all relevant actors towards the implementation of commitments made. I wish to avail of this opportunity to thank the Presidential Administration, the Cabinet of Ministers and other relevant State institutions at all governance levels for the outstanding partnership and effective collaboration with the UN development system in Kyrgyzstan. I would also like to express sincere appreciation to all UN partners from civil society, women, youth and human rights groups, the private sector, academia and media, as well as development partners and multilateral and bilateral donors, who all play an instrumental role in advancing the SDGs in Kyrgyzstan. Last but certainly not least, I wish to thank the dedicated staff of all UN Agencies, Funds and Programs working in and on Kyrgyzstan, for their tireless work throughout the year to improve the quality of life for the people of Kyrgyzstan. Thank you. Antje Grawe United Nations Resident Coordinator
