Summary and headline written by AI from the source article. How we work
In Kyrgyzstan, the government plans to sign “Social Contract” agreements with 13,334 low-income families by 2026, having already reached agreements with 10,597 families as of this report.
The program allows citizens to develop business projects with the aim of creating stable income and reducing reliance on state benefits. People interested in joining must apply through local offices of the Ministry or local self-government.
A monitoring process revealed that 321 families, less than one percent of those receiving assistance, could not fulfill the terms of their business projects. Reasons for failure included unexpected loss of assets or health issues, leading to potential termination of their contracts.
Families facing difficulties may be able to regain eligibility for state benefits if they meet legal requirements and a commission approves their case, according to the Law of the Kyrgyz Republic "On State Benefits." The application process remains open for those who wish to participate.
