Economic Development in Tajikistan
Tajikistan has experienced steady economic growth and rapid poverty reduction, mainly due to a favourable external environment
Abstract
Tajikistan has experienced steady economic growth and achieved rapid poverty reduction over the past two decades, mainly due to a favourable external environment. However, Tajikistan’s economy is highly dependent on remittances, agriculture and a small exports base. This annotated bibliography looks at key documents published since 2014 relating to economic development in Tajikistan. For each resource, a couple of brief paragraphs describe the document including its methodology (where available) and main findings. Then recommendations from the document are highlighted, and any limitations of the report (such as relating to data collection, analysis or findings) are highlighted if stated. A number of databases, indices and further resources have been flagged as footnotes or in the key websites section.
K4D helpdesk reports provide summaries of current research, evidence and lessons learned. This report was commissioned by the UK Department for International Development.
