The CCA Update for the Kyrgyz Republic provides an overall assessment of key gaps and trends in implementing the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development1 since the formulation of the 2016 CCA. The intention of the CCA Update is not to reassess those aspects of the 2016 CCA that continue to be valid, including the assessment of the human rights protection framework and mechanisms of the Kyrgyz Republic, but to focus primarily on new data, analyses and issues that have emerged in the last three years and which can inform UN programming for the remaining period of the UNDAF 2018-2022.
