Abstract
The Government of Kazakhstan has
requested support from the World Bank for an Agricultural
Post-privatization Assistance Project to support the
development and commercialization of privatized farms and
commercialization of privatized farms and agroenterprises in
two areas of the country and thus improve rural productivity
and incomes. The social assessment (SA) of this project aims
to understand the roles and status of different stakeholders
in the privatization and restructuring process, and to
identify ways to maximize benefits and mitigate possible
negative impacts of the project. This notes summarizes the
implementation of the process, the key social development
concerns, the institutional and organizational issues, and
the recommendations of the SA.
