Kyrgyzstan: Islamic Development Bank Mission Assesses Three Health Facility Projects

A mission by the Islamic Development Bank (IsDB) has been working in Kyrgyzstan since 24 October to prepare a project titled “Modernization of the Resilient Health Sector.” Within the mission, specialists are examining the possibility of financing the construction of three large medical facilities.

According to the press center of the Kyrgyz Ministry of Health, IsDB specialists visited Osh and Naryn regions, where they inspected proposed construction sites, assessed land and existing infrastructure, and studied regional healthcare needs. The proposed projects include the Osh Interregional Oncology Center, an infectious diseases building at the Osh City Clinical Hospital, and a multidisciplinary hospital in Naryn region.

Working meetings with the Ministry's leadership are ongoing, with both sides discussing next steps, the needs of medical organisations, technical aspects and financing prospects. The mission aims to assess the readiness of the projects and define the conditions needed for their implementation. The initiatives are expected to strengthen health infrastructure, expand access to specialised care and improve service quality in the regions.
