Abstract: This report builds on the long-term strategic framework of the Central Asia Regional Economic Cooperation (CAREC) Program to operationalize economic corridor development (ECD) in the Central Asia region. Its two objectives are to (i) customize the ECD concept to the unique context of the region, and (ii) identify specific areas where ECD may be piloted. The study provides a detailed but preliminary exploration of a specific segment of CAREC Corridor 1—the Almaty–Bishkek Corridor—to assess its potential as a pilot for ECD, and outlines steps to be taken over the next 12 months to develop this corridor.
