MDG Monitoring in Kyrgyz Republic
• At present NSC is ensuring monitoring of the
Country Development Strategy (CDS).
• MDG indicators are integrated into 2009-2011
CDS.
• CDS monitoring and evaluation matrix includes
considerable number of MDG indicators, which
demonstrates serious attitude of the government
to considering MDGs as guides for strategic
decision-making.
8
MDG Monitoring
• Global goals and targets were adapted to the
national conditions.
• MDG 2 requiring achievement by 2015 of
universal primary education has been
achieved. At the moment MDG for Kyrgyzstan
is formulated as achievement of universal
secondary education.
• Kyrgyz Republic has no agency that would
coordinate preparation of statistics by
ministries and agencies for estimating MDG
indicators and assess data quality.

Publication and Dissemination
of MDG Indicators

the format of Devinfo was developed to be

Issues
• Lack of international indicators in
monitoring of MDG indicators
• Lack of resources for more detailed
sample surveys.
• Unreliability
and
poor
quality
of
administrative data sources (HIV/AIDS
and
other
transmitted
diseases,
environment, unemployment, ICTs, use of
small samples).
16
MDG Monitoring: Perspectives
• Gradual incorporation of MDG indicators currently
missing in the CDS Indicators Matrix into its
structure.
• Improvement of dissemination and access to MDG
indicators.
• Reporting of new indicators covering status of
women and men in economy (access of women and
men to resources: land ownership, real estate,
information technologies).
• Update of indicators in line with new trends of labour
migration, violence against women.
