Partner Institutions in Kyrgyzstan
As I have conducted extensive research on development assistance, aid agencies, and environmental NGOs in the region, I recommend collaboration with the fllowing organizations on joint projects and development interventions. Currently, I am an active member of Ornithologia – Kyrgyz Association for Conservation of Biodiversity (KACB) but do wish submit project proposal on behalf any of the affiliated institutions. In other words, depending on specific field of expertise, a partnership agreement can be made with the following research centers in Kyrgyzstan.
Empirica International is a research and consulting agency focused on evidence‑based research and analysis in the context of international development. Based in Bishkek, Kyrgyzstan, the institute supports both high‑quality consultancy services and applied scientific research aimed at informing strategic decisions and development interventions.
Building on the tradition of interdisciplinary research and consultancy, Empirica International applies approaches commonly used by leading global research organizations. The institute engages across sectors such as digital innovation, inclusive development, and policy‑relevant research, collaborating with multiple partners to design studies, provide strategic analysis, and deliver actionable insights that inform decision‑making.
Tian Shan Policy Center (TSPC) is an international non-profit institution at the American University of Central Asia (AUCA) which focuses on research, policy advisory, capacity development and project implementation.
Since its establishment in 2011 TSPC promoted the study of Central Asia at the local and international levels and government institutions as the basis for improving the lives of people in new democracies.
