Locations

Afghanistan

Afghanistan’s infrastructure base remains severely underdeveloped after decades of conflict, with major gaps in transport, electricity generation and water systems. Connectivity projects linking Central and South Asia have been viewed as potential drivers of trade and economic stabilisation. However, limited fiscal space, sanctions-related financial isolation and weak institutional capacity significantly constrain infrastructure financing and private investment. Sustainable development will depend on improved governance frameworks, regional cooperation and gradual restoration of investor confidence.

Armenia

Armenia has prioritised transport corridor upgrades, renewable energy expansion and digital infrastructure to enhance regional integration and competitiveness. Investments aim to strengthen Armenia’s role as a transit and services economy between Europe and Asia. The government has implemented regulatory reforms and sought foreign direct investment to modernise logistics and energy systems. Continued institutional strengthening and diversification beyond remittances and mining remain central to long-term resilience.
