Very truly yours, Wataru Shiga Project manager, Basic design study team on the Project for Improvement of Primary Medical Aid in the Tashkent and Djizak Regions, UNICO International Corporation SUMMARY SUMMARY Uzbekistan in Outline The economic base of the Republic of Uzbekistan is cultivation of cotton and other cash crops but the nation is relatively well endowed with mineral and energy resources. Since attaining independence in 1991, Uzbekistan has accomplished its distinctive pattern of economic development, by adhering to a policy of moderatism while attaching importance to three core objectives for structural reform of the economy, namely stabilization of the macro-economy, transiting to a market economy, and attraction of foreign direct investment. During 1998-2003, growth of the GDP was stable, averaging 4.2%, a performance that owed much to progress in restructuring the large state enterprises and facilitating dynamism among private corporations. Following a record-setting performance of 7.7% GDP growth in 2004, the high growth of real GDP of 7% was achieved in 2005, and rapid progress was evident in the movement toward a market economy. A high literacy rate -- 99% -- is a characteristic of Uzbekistan, indicating that the nation is also endowed with a labor force of high quality. The structure of employment in Uzbekistan is about 32% of jobs in agriculture, about 13% in industry, about 8% in construction, and about 14% in all other sectors, so that non-manufacturing and other services account for about 32%. The sectoral composition of industry, in fiscal 2005, in terms of shares of GDP, indicate that agriculture contributes 25%, industry 20.7%, construction 4.9%, services 38.4%, and net tax collection 11%. Irrigated farming is the basis of Uzbekistan’s agriculture. In addition to the traditional cultivation of cotton, a major crop is wheat but there is also considerable production of other grains, vegetables and fruits, and in the mountainous districts there is a vibrant livestock sector, producing meat and dairy products, and eggs. The industrial sector is dominated by extraction or recovery and processing of natural resources on a scale significant in global perspective. Natural gas and coal are the most important in this regard, but Uzbekistan also continues to occupy an important position as a producer of raw materials for the textile industry. In terms of the value of industrial production, energy resources (fuels) account for 27.2% of the total, light industry (textiles, leather processing, others) 16.9%, nonferrous metals 16.9%, machine-building 12.9%, and food processing 8.4%, leaving 17.7% provided by other sectors. Overall, the industrial sector is characterized by natural resources including in particular mineral resources, by cotton production, and by foodstuff production, whereby the processing of agricultural resources is the dominant characteristic. During the decade and a half since attaining independence, coupled with the development of the economy that has largely taken place in the urban areas, economic disparity between the urban and rural areas has emerged, and disparities have become evident and have enlarged, with regard to the environment for education, access to safe drinking water, and social services such as health and S - 1 medical care. In terms of the UNDP Human Development Index, whereas the score for Uzbekistan was 0.737 in 1996, by 2005 it had fallen to 0.694 (111th out of 177 countries), signifying that the fruits of economic growth and development were not being recycled so as to improve the lives of the people on an equal and fair basis. In order to deal with the challenges that these conditions represent, further development of the market economy, and improvement of the economic infrastructure, are indispensable requirements, as well as the reduction of poverty as an effect of achieving solid economic growth over the long run. Further, necessity also exists for improvement of social services that function as a safety net for the poor people in particular, so that it will be possible to stabilize the livelihoods of the people in a manner that is balanced in regional comparisons. The Uzbekistan government, from this viewpoint, has taken up the challenges of structural reform of the economy, agricultural reform, education reform, health services and medical care reform, judicial reform and other development objectives, among which improvement of the system for providing health care and medical services to the rural areas has been recognized as being a particularly urgent issue. Background of the Project More than 63% of the 26 million people making up the national population of Uzbekistan live in rural areas and 28% of the population is considered to be living in poverty but of them more than a third are said to be living in conditions of absolute poverty. Because of a skewed distribution of medical institutions that places the rural areas at a disadvantage, the residents of those areas are in a position of inferiority with regard to maintenance of health and access to medical care. There is s clear regional disparity with regard to this aspect of public services. There has not been evident progress in achieving the nation’s Millennium Development Goals (MDG) in terms of reduction of the infant mortality rate and the under-5 mortality rate, and improvement of maternal health. Thus, the health and medical care sector face a challenge of great magnitude and equally great significance. Steps that the Uzbekistan government has taken against this background include the guarantee provided in the Constitution, promulgated in 1992, that the people of the nation have the right to equal medical services, and since 1994 there has been a swift succession of presidential decrees that have been announced and laws that have been passed, with intentions of reforming the system for health care and medical services, providing the system with fiscal support, and promoting privatization. With assistance from the World Bank, the United Nations Development Program, the Asian Development Bank and other providers of assistance, the Uzbekistan government has formulated a program that has the overriding objectives of improving the livelihood of the people and reducing poverty, and in March 2005 released the Interim Welfare Improvement Strategy Paper of the Republic of Uzbekistan for 2004-2010 (I-WISP). The report gives among interim goals for the period 2004-2010 the strengthening and expansion of primary health care service system for residents of rural areas. Prior to this, in 1998 the government adopted as a priority concern the improvement of health care and medical services and augmenting the regional allocation of medical resources, in the State S - 2 Program of Health Care Reform (1988-2005). As one part of this program, the government has embarked on reform of the primary medical services system that had been a leftover from the Soviet Union days, and began to reorganize the rural feldsher posts (FAP), small rural ambulatory posts (SVA) and small rural hospitals (SUB), that had not been organized in a unified manner, by creating rural medical centers (SVP). The Uzbekistan government is now in the process of creating and improving SVPs in over 2,800 locations, so that primary medical care of a certain level can be accessible to the entire rural population. Most of the facilities for this are existing, and are being improved so as to be usable by the SVPs, with progress being made as budgetary allocations permit. Most of these facilities, however, are structures that had been built during the Soviet era, and very many of them are in need of reconstruction or major repair.

  • Problems of Radiation Safety at Mined out Uranium Properties in Uzbekistan
    XA0201932 IAEA-SM-362/23 Problems of radiation safety at mined out uranium properties in Uzbekistan I.G. Gorlov, R.I. Goldshtein "Kyzyltepageologiya" State Geological Enterprise, Tashkent, Uzbekistan Republic of Uzbekistan was one of the main uranium production areas in former Soviet Union for more than 40 years. About 150 uranium production facilities have been constructed for that time in connection with hydrothermal and sedimentary-metamorphic deposits of the fold basement and stratal-infiltration deposits of the sedimentary cover. 18 of these facilities are located in Tadzhikistan and Kyrgyzstan along the boundary with Uzbekistan. Exploration and operation activities in the deposits located in the fold basement were in general in form of mining. It was resulted in essential violation of landscape, development of various underground excavations, damps, tailing impoundments, lower grade stockpiles. All these need large volume of radioactive decontamination and restoration activities. 54 sites from 67 (80%) located in the territory of Uzbekistan need radioactive decontamination and restoration now. Very serious radiation settings have occurred in some of these sites nowadays. Radioactive dumps of Cherkesar-I and Cherkesar-II mined out uranium deposits are out of any control in Fergana valley in Pap region of Namangan province. The radioactive materials are collected in dumps covered with neutral ground. The cover is washed out in some places by rains. Intensity of gamma radiation is 300 to 450 ur/h, radon exhalation is up to 7 Bk/m2*sec (while the normal level is up to 1 Bk/m2*sec). Water runs out from mothballed mines and its microelement composition is close to the composition of the technological solution.

  • Third-Party Monitoring of Measures Against Child Labour and Forced Labour During the 2016 Cotton Harvest in Uzbekistan
    Third-party monitoring of measures against child labour and forced labour during the 2016 cotton harvest in Uzbekistan A report submitted to the World Bank by the International Labour Office This report has been prepared by the ILO at the request of the World Bank for the third party monitoring of the World Bank-financed projects in agriculture, water and education sectors in Uzbekistan. The ILO is grateful for the cooperation of the tripartite constituents of Uzbekistan, and in particular the Federation of Trade Unions of Uzbekistan, in the monitoring and assessment process. The ILO has tried to reflect the constructive comments received from its partners throughout the process. In line with their request, it has formulated concrete suggestions for further work by the constituents, including cooperation involving the ILO and the World Bank. The ILO alone is responsible for the conclusions drawn in this report. January 2017 1 Key Findings Uzbekistan continues to make policy commitments and develop action plans to reduce the risks of child and forced labour. Government instructions were issued before and during both the 2015 and 2016 harvests. These are increasingly influencing the context within which officials and citizens view their involvement in the cotton harvest. Uzbekistan has phased-out organized child labour. ILO first monitored child labour during the 2013 cotton harvest. Since then, the risk has been reduced to the point at which child labour has become socially unacceptable, as noted in 2015 and again this year. This is a major Uzbek achievement, made possible by the availability of educational facilities. Vigilance will be required to ensure the ongoing efficacy of measures against child labour, especially for 16-17 year old pupils in lyceums and same age students in colleges.
