KRI International Corp. JICA Data Collection Survey on Health Sector TAC International Inc. Country Report: Republic of Tajikistan Foreword Background The current situation surrounding the health sector in developing countries has been changing, especially at the start of the 21st century. Based on the recommendations from the concept of “Macroeconomics and Health”1, development assistance for health has greatly increased to accelerate efforts to achieve the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) by 2015. The development assistance for health has risen sharply from USD 10.9 billion to USD 21.8 billion in 2007 2. Moreover, development assistance was harmonized by the common framework developed at the three consequent high-level forums in Rome (2003), in Paris (2005) and in Accra (2008). Regardless of such favorable environmental changes for the health sector in developing countries, the outcomes do not seem to reach the level of expectation in many countries.

    Tajikistan Region: Europe and Central Asia Income Group: Low Income Source for region and income groupings: World Bank 2018 National Education Profile 2018 Update OVERVIEW In Tajikistan, the academic year begins in September and ends in June, and the official primary school entrance age is 7. The system is structured so that the primary school cycle lasts 4 years, lower secondary lasts 5 years, and upper secondary lasts 2 years. Tajikistan has a total of 1,817,000 pupils enrolled in primary and secondary education. Of these pupils, about 771,000 (42%) are enrolled in primary education. Figure 3 shows the highest level of education reached by youth ages 15-24 in Tajikistan. Although youth in this age group may still be in school and working towards their educational goals, it is notable that approximately 2% of youth have no formal education and 1% of youth have attained at most incomplete primary education, meaning that in total 3% of 15-24 year olds have not completed primary education in Tajikistan.
