MADRID, January 14. /Dunyo IA/. The Spanish analytical news portal “Otra Lectura” has published an article focusing on the updated “Uzbekistan - 2030” national development strategy, reports Dunyo IA correspondent.

The publication notes that Uzbekistan's 2030 Strategy is the country's main framework for medium- and long-term development. It provides strategic direction for public policy, institutional reform and socio-economic transformation, while embedding principles of continuity, predictability and long-term planning at the core of state governance. Since its adoption, the strategy has served as a critical reference point for the reform agenda, shaping what is often referred to as the “New Uzbekistan”.

“In recent years, Uzbekistan has made tangible progress in a wide range of areas, including economic modernization, public administration reform, judicial reform, expansion of civic space and protection of human rights. These reforms have produced measurable results and contributed to greater openness and institutional capacity. At the same time, the pace of change - both domestically and globally - has continued to accelerate”, - publication notes.

It is noted that societal expectations are evolving, economic conditions are becoming more complex, technological change is reshaping governance models and global geopolitical and economic dynamics are introducing new risks and opportunities. In this context, updating the “Uzbekistan-2030” Strategy is a logical and necessary step to ensure that policy planning remains relevant, responsive and effective.

The principle of public institutions serving the interests of the individual is underscored, with the article noting that this approach forms the foundation of the updated strategy. It is aimed at building a more effective, accountable, and results-oriented system of governance capable of delivering tangible improvements in the everyday lives of citizens.

 “The continuous refinement of the “Uzbekistan-2030” Strategy represents a structured, transparent, and accountable effort to deepen reforms and adapt them to contemporary realities. Above all, it reaffirms a clear priority: national development is not an end in itself, but a means to improve people's lives and well-being. In this regard, the Uzbekistan-2030 Strategy is shaping itself as a true people-centred “roadmap” for inclusive and sustainable progress”, - article concludes.
