With funding support from the Multidonor Trust Fund under the Water Financing Partnership Facility, ADB helped the Government of Uzbekistan develop its National Water Sector Development Concept 2030 and Strategy for Water Resources Management and Irrigation Sector Development 2021-2023. Both address critical challenges in water management. These serve as a roadmap for modernizing Uzbekistan’s water infrastructure to render it more efficient and climate-resilient. The roadmap aims to reduce water consumption in agriculture by improving irrigation systems and expanding the use of water-saving technologies.
