Reports and Working Papers 22/2 Almaty, Moscow: Eurasian Development Bank, 2022
Global food security is worsening, with 828 million people suffering from hunger in 2022; EDB analysts foresee high food prices persisting, but the Eurasian region has the potential to boost food production and exports, requiring improved infrastructure, logistics, and an inclusive approach to ensure food security.
The report highlights the strategic importance of effective water and energy management in the Aral Sea basin, which is home to 81% of Central Asia's population. Key issues include underinvestment, insufficient regional cooperation, and low water-use efficiency, with proposed solutions focusing on regional dialogue, institutional improvements, and increased research funding.
This study evaluates the investment potential of the International North-South Transport Corridor (INSTC), identifying over 40 barriers and recommending solutions to enhance its development. Key issues include infrastructure bottlenecks and lack of harmonized procedures, with an estimated $10.7 billion needed for priority projects, which could be financed through private investment and public-private partnerships to improve logistics and cooperation.
