Central Asian states in the system of international development assistance programs

The total volume of official development assistance (ODA) for the Central Asian countries — Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Uzbekistan, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan — for the period 2013–2023 comes to around $21.12 bn in absolute terms. The dependence of the countries of the region on foreign aid is decreasing due to changes in the socio-economic situation in the countries. There is a certain «division of labor» between OECD Development Assistance Committee (DAC) member countries and other donors. For example, Uzbekistan cooperates with OECD countries, while Kyrgyzstan cooperates more with non-OECD donors and Eurasian development institutions.
