The World Bank emphasizes ending extreme poverty and promoting shared prosperity sustainably. Transport is vital as a facilitator of trade and inclusive growth. To achieve Almaty's goals, coherence in transport and trade policies is essential, highlighting five key priorities: asset creation, regional integration, partnership development, operational performance, and capacity enhancement.
