29. Low environment awareness and knowledge base of the authorities and population effects PE mainstreaming into planning and budgeting
30. Development plans can help in the long term economic growth when considering sustainable environment management
31. Sub national development plans can be an entry point to demonstrate the value of mainstreaming PE concerns into planning processes
32. The timing of PEI Tajikistan to be implemented in parallel and collaboration with the Rural Growth Programme has enabled PEI with its limited resources to effectively influence the process
33. Quite complicated process due to multi-stakeholder participation but effective due to the same reason
34. The process is important – methodology itself without capacity building might not bring the same resultsUNDP-UNEP Poverty- Environment Initiative
