| Duties | UNDP's Strategic Plan lays out a bold ambition to ensure that low-carbon, affordable, and reliable energy is available to an additional 500 million people by the year 2025, especially for those hardest to reach and in crisis contexts. Energy-Signature Solution 5 - Energy: Cleaner, affordable, renewable energy for everyone. Energy is a priority in UNDP's current strategic plan as sustainable energy is vital to poverty eradication, social progress, gender equality, low-carbon and climate-resilient development. Uzbekistan's schools in some remote areas have outdated and inadequate facilities, particularly for water, sanitation and hygiene (WASH), heating and electricity. Major infrastructural gaps are affecting the education results of existing schools, including a lack of functioning WASH facilities, unreliable access to electricity and heating systems, and limited availability of functioning canteens for preparing hot school meals. Climate change is expected to exacerbate challenges by disrupting water availability, compromising water quality, and affecting infrastructure functionality. The joint programme of UNDP and UNICEF "Modelling climate resilience and WASH in schools" aligns with the 2030 Agenda's pledge to "leave no one behind," strongly focusing on adolescent girls through gender-responsive and inclusive climate-resilient WASH programming. UNDP has led the development of standards for schools and essential infrastructure and pioneered projects like Uzbekistan's first nearly-zero-energy building. Globally, UNDP's extensive experience in school construction across diverse contexts, combined with its deep expertise in community planning and participatory approaches, including budgeting, uniquely positions it to enhance programme effectiveness, transparency, and ownership. The project aims to enhance access of children and adolescents in the most affected schools to equitable, inclusive, and climate-resilient learning environments and enhance the education system to better plan, deliver, and maintain school environments by: − modelling climate resilience and WASH in schools to create equitable, inclusive, and climate-resilient learning environments. −prioritising access to inclusive, gender-responsive WASH services in 45 schools (potentially reaching 50), addressing the needs of 31,500 children and adolescents, particularly adolescent girls. −providing institutional support to the Ministry of Preschool and School Education (MoPSE) and local agencies to govern school infrastructure in gender-sensitive and transparent ways in cooperation with local communities to ensure the sustainability of improvements. The proposed intervention drives transformational impact by elevating the entire education sector. By establishing a relevant framework and standard principles for future climate-resilient WASH standards implementation (including school renovation), the Project sets a new standard for educational infrastructure in Uzbekistan. These will serve as role models informing the building and renovation of schools nationwide with a focus on efficiency, modernity, equity and sustainability for improved student outcomes. The use of renewable energy solutions such as solar power, energy-efficient heating systems, and water management not only reduces carbon footprints but also demonstrates scalable and cost-effective models that can be replicated. It promotes the adoption of international best practices in climate-resilient WASH standards, energy efficiency, and school infrastructure design, leading to long-term economic benefits. The programme contributes to national policy implementation and capacity building by working closely with the Ministry of Preschool and School Education (MoPSE) and other government agencies, as well as local authorities, in support of the implementation of the Clean Hands Programme. This programme aims to uphold these principles by supporting equitable education, inclusion and gender equality. Through data-driven decision-making and community engagement, the project will pinpoint exclusion factors and tailor interventions that meet the needs of children disproportionately affected by the lack of inclusive WASH services, including children with disabilities.
