Tajikistan Advances Cotton Reform with EU Support
Tajikistan is reforming its cotton industry to promote sustainability. The country approved a National Strategy through 2040 focusing on modernization and eco-friendly production. The European Union granted €19.88 million to support this green transition, including technological upgrades and climate adaptation.
Why it matters: • Global demand for sustainable cotton is rising amidst environmental and social concerns. • Forced labor and high water use remain challenges in Tajikistan’s cotton sector. • Introducing certified standards and digital tracking can improve transparency and market trust.
What to do next: • Support initiatives promoting sustainable cotton varieties and precision farming. • Advocate for fair labor practices and gender equity in cotton production. • Encourage the use of digital platforms to monitor supply chains in real time.
