Strengthening Cross-Border Community Collaboration in The Carec Region. 
A Scoping Study
The Central Asia Regional Economic Cooperation (CAREC) member countries face many common economic, 
social, and environmental challenges that directly impact their citizens and communities. Communities living 
in bordering regions face this impact in a unique manner with historical and cultural ties, shared resources and 
geographies, social support systems including family and friends, and business and livelihood activities. This report 
provides a brief strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats (SWOT) analysis of the scope for CAREC to 
strengthen cross-border communities’ development. It identifies a series of recommendations for CAREC to play a 
proactive role in expanding cross-border cooperation in the border regions. 
About the Central Asia Regional Economic Cooperation Program
The CAREC Program is a partnership of 11 countries— Afghanistan, Azerbaijan, the People’s Republic 
of China, Georgia, Kazakhstan, the Kyrgyz Republic, Mongolia, Pakistan, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, and 
Uzbekistan—and development partners, working together to promote development through cooperation, 
leading to accelerated economic growth and poverty reduction.
