| Corruption in Tajikistan - Public opinion | The question of corruption in recent years has become an increasingly important and debated issue in our country. This phenomenon is represented in the media as a serious barrier for the healthy development of society, a social evil, which requires intervention and elimination. The “Corruption in Tajikistan” Survey is related to the research projects of corruption in terms of its reflection in the collective consciousness. It is stipulated that the subjective factors in solving any problems are no less important than the objective ones. The orientation of citizens in viewing the situation, emotional attitude, the desire to solve the problem, self-reliance, etc.,come out as the subjective factors. This study to some extent enables the determination of the level of corruption, the market of corruption services, and the degree of involvement of citizens in corruption, which is necessary information when making a decision on this issue. The project addressed all aspects of everyday corruption, which involves our citizens in solving routine domestic problems: on the roads, universities, schools, military enlistment offices, etc. Here we started out from the standard question: “Have you ever once in your life dealt with corruption?” It allowed us to calculate the ratio of the frequency of getting into such situations to the overall frequency of applying for a particular public service, i.e., the magnitude of corruption risks and to describe, consequently, the market structure of corrupt services. It also allowed us to analyze the problem of demand for corruption, i.e., the degree of preparedness of the population to engage in corrupt transactions. To measure this parameter, we asked people whether they are going to solve the problems by using bribes, when in a corrupt situation. Two other parameters were also considered in the project - the cost of corruption services and its relationship with the intensity of the market of corruption. The analysis of specific situations and situations in the market of corruption in general was provided here. A comparative analysis of two studies (2006 and 2010) on the basic parameters that characterize the market of corrupt services was conducted in the project. | Eng Russian |

| Communication Strategy for Agricultural Reforms Intended to the Independent Commission |
Cotton plays a crucial role in Tajikistan, with 15% of export earnings, 35% of tax revenues and 60% of agricultural output. Furthermore, it is produced by the majority of the agricultural producing units, supporting about 75% of the rural population, and cultivated on 45% of arable land. Despite this predominant role, the cotton sector is characterised by low and stagnating productivities in production and ginning, a massive debt of 402 millions US$ of the majority of the cotton producing units, producer exploitation by cotton processing and marketing monopsonies controlling as well inputs and outputs and current land use and competition policies and their implementation at local levels, impeding growth opportunities. |

Human Development Report 2007/2008 |
What we do today about climate change has consequences that will last a century or more. The part of that change that is due to greenhouse gas emissions is not reversible in the foreseeable future. The heat trapping gases we send into the atmosphere in 2008 will stay there until 2108 and beyond. We are therefore making choices today that will affect our own lives, but even more so the lives of our children and grandchildren. This makes climate change different and more difficult than other policy challenges. |
