This paper uses a recently developed methodology based on quantile regressions and initial conditions to propose alternative benchmarks for social sectors in Kyrgyz Republic. Covering a wide set of indicators, the analysis reveals mixed results for Kyrgyz Republic. The country has made important strides in many social areas, with outstanding results in reducing child mortality and undernourishment. However, other areas are still key challenges and demand further attention and resources, as evidenced by the underachievement in maternal mortality, educational performance, and increasing informality in labor markets. 2015-10-08T22:16:58Z 2015-10-08T22:16:58Z 2015-08 Working Paper http://documents.worldbank.org/curated/en/2015/09/24987111/kyrgyz-republic-social-sectors-glance http://hdl.handle.net/10986/22756 English en_US Social protection and labor discussion paper,no. 1505; CC BY 3.0 IGO http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/igo/ World Bank World Bank, Washington, DC Publications & Research Publications & Research :: Working Paper Europe and Central Asia Kyrgyz Republic
