๐ Last week, on 17 September, the DARYA Regional Steering Committee 2025 gathered key stakeholders from the CentralAsia countries and the EU to summarise the results and chart the way forward. ๐ GREATVISORY is supporting the preparation of this kind of events for yet another year as part of our assignment โFostering regional cooperation and national stakeholder engagement in DARYAโ.
๐ฏ The DARYA family emphasised the common principle: skillsdevelopment must be future-oriented and inseparable from economic development. The participants agreed that a regionalapproach is crucial for enhancing competitiveness and integration, and that skills are at the heart of tomorrow’s economies. ๐ National examples confirmed this: the DARYA pilot projects are gradually becoming part of national systems, and cooperation between ministries and countries is strengthening.
Key achievements include: โ multi-level collaboration in Kazakhstan with SCAFFOLD trainers, โ expert working groups in Kyrgyzstan, โ strategic alignment with national policies in Turkmenistan, โ commitment of Tajikistan to creating a national qualityassurance platform, and โ greater employersโ engagement in Uzbekistan through social partnerships and sector skills councils.
๐ Looking ahead – GREATVISORY is supporting the ETF to prepare for the High-Level Group meeting in Turin on 30โ31 October, where the key findings of the Regional Steering Committee will be consolidated and presented to deputy ministers of the Central Asia countries.
