Kazakhstan Country Gender Assessment

Abstract

This report reviews Kazakhstan’s progress towards gender equality and women’s empowerment, and focuses particularly on gender issues in the Asian Development Bank’s operations in transport, urban development, and support for entrepreneurship. Since the previous assessment in 2006, Kazakhstan has introduced several policies and programs for gender equality. While consistently high scores have been achieved for women’s access to education and health, progress on political empowerment and economic opportunities has been less rapid. It is hoped this assessment will also prove useful to government, civil society organizations, other international agencies, and individuals working in gender and development in Kazakhstan.
