The European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD) is supporting Samarkand Regional Government in developing a Green City Action Plan (GCAP), which will include detailed actions to inform the city’s future infrastructure investments and policy interventions to address environmental challenges. Development of the GCAP is generously funded by the EBRD’s Sustainable Infrastructure Fund (SIF).

Samarkand is the first city in Uzbekistan to commit to preparing a GCAP and join EBRD’s flagship Green Cities Programme, which provides more than €5 billion support to over fifty cities and municipalities across EBRD’s Countries of Operation. A consultant team led by AECOM Limited, with IKS Consulting as the local technical partner, is supporting EBRD and Samarkand with the preparation of this GCAP.
