- Transport Infrastructure is crucially important to foster economic development and prosperity of countries. It contributes to higher productivity and growth, facilitates trade and connectivity, and promotes economic inclusion. Investments in infrastructure are essential for the economic growth of developing countries. Such investments include not only investments in the development of new infrastructure, but also investments in quality improvements. Potential economic benefits of Transport Corridors include the increase of cross-border trade, GDP, investments, employment and decrease in transportation cost. Major barriers for infrastructure investments include long-term financing, high upfront cost, large scale investment needs, high risk and uncertain benefits. Against this backdrop at this hybrid event experts will discuss Transport Corridors in the CAREC Region, including issues with promoting supply chain resilience and trade facilitation. This event will focus on the development of the CAREC Transport Corridors, its trade and economic potential, and infrastructure expansion challenges and opportunities.
- Centrally located at the intersection of trade, economic, and transport corridors, Fergana Valley has the potential to drive economic development in Central Asia.
Regional Capacity-Building Workshop on Delivering Climate Change Solutions for Central and West Asia
Asia and the Pacific are highly vulnerable to the impacts of climate change, which threatens both economic and social development. As the climate bank of Asia and the Pacific, the Asian Development Bank has committed to scaling up mitigation and adaptation measures through developing innovative financing mechanisms and building climate resilient societies. However, the region accounts for more than half of all global carbon emissions and the transition to clean energy has been lagging. Therefore, it is imperative to build climate and disaster resilience while also developing low-carbon technologies to abate greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and mitigate climate change. ADB and ADBI are co-organizing a series of regional workshops to build understanding of how to design integrated climate policies and better align countries’ long-term strategies (LTS) and nationally determined contributions (NDCs). Other workshop modules will focus on climate adaptation and resilience and defining and tracking climate finance. ADBI’s module on accelerating private sector investment to respond to climate change will highlight the role of the private sector in meeting climate objectives, and the main channels through which it can contribute. It will also explore key drivers such as access to reliable data, strengthening regulation, establishing interoperable institutional frameworks and policies, and increasing access to innovative financing instruments.
