DUSHANBE, Tajikistan, May 21. The expert
assessments indicate that Tajikistan requires an estimated $34
billion in climate financing for the 2025–2030 period, Trend reports via the
Eurasian Fund for Stabilization and Development (EFSD).
Analysts warn that climate-related risks could reduce the
country’s GDP by 5-6% by mid-century and significantly increase
poverty levels. At the same time, effective adaptation measures are
expected to strengthen water and energy security and improve
agricultural productivity.
Experts note that with appropriate structural reforms
integrating climate considerations, Tajikistan could achieve up to
6% green growth by 2050.
International financial institutions, including the Asian
Development Bank, World Bank, European Bank for Reconstruction and
Development, and International Monetary Fund, are increasing
climate-focused support and aligning financing strategies for
developing countries.
The Asian Development Bank has raised its climate financing
commitment from $80 billion to $100 billion for 2019–2030 and is
supporting the CAREC Climate and Sustainable Development Project
Preparation Fund, launched in 2024, aimed at preparing new climate
and resilience projects in the region.
