Assessing the impact of the global financial crisis on public service delivery in former Soviet Union economies

In the framework of the 12 month study "The impact of the global financial crisis on public service delivery in former Soviet Union economies" the first country report has been published in CASE Network Report series: „Public Expenditures on Education and Health in the Kyrgyz Republic before and during the Global Crisis” by Roman Mogilevsky.

Dr. Mogilevsky analyses the public finance performance and the dynamics of government expenditures on education and health in the Kyrgyz Republic in 2007-2010, when the country was hit by the global economic crisis and then by an internal political crisis in 2010. The paper analyses the country’s fiscal situation in the medium-term and examines efficiency-orientated reforms in health care and education services.

The project has been funded by the Local Government and Public Service Reform Initiative of the Open Society  Foundations and implemented in collaboration with CASE Ukraine, CASE Moldova and CASE Kyrgyzstan.
