Capacity building of the Ministry of Economy on the Environmental, Social and Governance framework

Within the frameworks of the project „Capacity building of the Ministry of Economy on the Environmental, Social and Governance framework“ we will support MEF in designing and piloting a practical Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) framework for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in Uzbekistan. The project aims to: Align Uzbek SMEs with international ESG and Responsible Business Conduct (RBC) standards; Strengthen their access to sustainable investment and global value chains; Support the implementation of Uzbekistan’s Green Economy Strategy 2030 and SME development priorities.

Our work will combine policy advisory, stakeholder engagement, and capacity building – including workshops, toolkits, and pilots with SMEs and business associations – to ensure the framework is practical, scalable, and locally owned.
