In 2023, the WHO Country Office in Kyrgyzstan demonstrated agility in implementing the objectives set out in the Biennial Collaborative Agreement 2022–2023 between WHO/Europe and Kyrgyzstan, the WHO European Programme of Work, and WHO’s Thirteenth General Programme of Work (GPW13). Throughout the year, WHO Kyrgyzstan actively supported evolving national priorities through regular consultations with the Government of Kyrgyzstan, the Ministry of Health, United Nations agencies, development partners, and donors. Furthermore, WHO played a pivotal role in advancing health and well-being across the country by collaborating with national and sub-national stakeholders both within and beyond the health-care sector. This annual report reflects on goals achieved during 2023 and considers next steps that will help ensure progress is maintained.
