Uzbekistan and GGGI promote "green" projects

Two joint projects focus on sustainable development and climate finance

On January 16, 2026, a meeting was held at the Ministry of Economy and Finance of Uzbekistan dedicated to the implementation of joint initiatives with the Global Green Growth Institute (GGGI). The first project, supported by a KOICA grant of $8.5 million, aims to assist Uzbekistan in implementing the Paris Agreement and joint actions with the Republic of Korea under Article 6 for 2026–2030.

The second project, "Addressing Climate Finance Gaps in Central Asia," is estimated at 400,000 euros and is designed for 2025–2026. It is designed to accelerate the transition of the financial sector of Uzbekistan and Kyrgyzstan to a "green" economy and expand opportunities for green investments.

The meeting discussed project implementation schedules, the introduction of pilot solutions in energy and resource management, as well as institutional support measures. As a result, the parties confirmed their readiness to continue working together and strengthen bilateral cooperation in the field of sustainable development.
