| Summary: | In the first half of 1999, Kyrgyz
authorities agreed with the International Development
Association (IDA) that a review of Kyrgyz social
expenditures, giving particular emphasis to health and
education expenditures, would be valuable. This report
presents findings from the resulting review undertaken
between October 1999 and June 2000. The review team looked
not only at these expenditures (including social protection)
themselves, but also at their efficiency and effectiveness
as a means for achieving Kyrgyz objectives in the social
policy arena. The review team first examined medium-term
priorities for social policy under sharp resource
constraints, then considered feasible strategies for
achieving these priorities, and finally looked at their
implications for policies, administration, and public
expenditures. The report is in 2 volumes. Volume 1 provides
an overview of the findings on health, education, and social
protection. Volume 2 offers more detailed critiques of
expenditures and policies on health and education. |
