On Monday February 14, 14, Ambassador and Resident Representative of Aga Khan Development Network (AKDN) in Tajikistan, Mr. Qozidavlat Qoimdodov, met here with the Regional Manager of International Finance Corporation (IFC) for Central Asia, Ms. Cassandra Colbert, according to AKD Resident Office in Tajikistan.
During the meeting that took place at the AKDN Office, the parties discussed issues related to the longstanding partnership between AKDN and IFC.
Mr. Qoimdodov and Ms. Colbert reportedly also discussed ways to expand collaboration between the two international organizations to design and develop joint national and regional programs to create job opportunities and to improve the quality life of people in Tajikistan.
It was pointed out at the meeting that one of the best models of partnership between AKDN, particularly the Aga Khan Fund for Economic Development (AKFED), IFC, and the Government of Tajikistan is the establishment of Pamir Energy Company, which is considered as model of the private-public partnership.
This program is making a significant and positive impact not only on improving the lives of the people of Tajikistan’s Gorno-Badakhshan Autonomous Region (GBAO), but also on the people of Afghanistan’s Badakhshan Province.
At the end of the meeting, the parties agreed on the importance of the development of new partnership projects and regular consultations to expand collaboration and achieve mutual objectives.
AKDN and its agencies focus on empowering and improving the lives of people in developing countries.
AKDN programs are aimed at the well-being of all people, regardless of race, nationality or religion.
IFC, a member of the World Bank Group, is the largest global development institution focused on the private sector in emerging markets. It works in more than 100 countries, using its capital, expertise, and influence to create markets and opportunities in developing countries.
Tajikistan became a member of IFC in 1994.
