| description |
Kazakhstan is a unique country in a
unique part of the world. Its uniqueness is important, as it
shapes the opportunities and economic realities faced by the
country, as well as the political responses to those
challenges. Since independence in 1992, Kazakhstan has made
rapid progress in transitioning to an upper-middle income
country. This sustained growth has enabled Kazakhstan to
achieve rapid reductions in poverty. This note draws on a
large body of recent and ongoing analyses carried out by the
World Bank, the Government of Kazakhstan, and other
partners. The strategy, in turn, aims to enhance the impact
of the government’s policies, programs, and projects on the
availability, diversity, quality, and sustainability of
jobs. The remainder of the note is structured as follows:
Section 2 provides a detailed review of the state of jobs in
Kazakhstan, reviewing recent progress and analyzing the
nature of the challenges around self-employment; Section 3
introduces a framework for thinking about a jobs strategy in
Kazakhstan, and provides an initial overview of the current
situation and government response along each of its
dimensions, as well as some potential policies for
consideration; and Section 4 concludes. |
