Outcome achieved
An Agency for Social Protection under the Office of the President of Uzbekistan was set-up in June 2023. The institution is mandated to design, implement, coordinate and monitor the implementation of social protection programmes across various ministries and Government entities. This is a key milestone towards strengthening the institutional architecture of social protection. The Agency will, among other functions manage the National Social Protection Observatory (NSPO). The NSPO supports the M&E Framework of the National Social Protection Strategy.
