The Country Environmental Analysis,
presents a review of environmental priorities, public
environmental expenditures and the supporting institutional
framework and makes recommendations to improve the
efficiency and effectiveness of public environmental
expenditure in Azerbaijan. The focus is to identify areas
for improvement and changes to ensure that the process of
establishing environment-related priorities is sufficiently
comprehensive. The report concludes that investment
effectiveness is key to environmental improvements and
without significant political backing, monitoring
environmental progress will continue to be based on
individual project records. Also, without a clear decision
on monitoring, the State Environmental Program will fall
short of its potential. The report makes specific
recommendations to fulfill the objectives and address the
challenges identified.
