Abstract

This multi-sectoral National Development Strategy “Moldova-2020” focuses on the following development priorities: (a) reduction of energy consumption by increasing energy efficiency and the use of renewable energy sources; and (b) increase of competitiveness of agro-food products and sustainable rural development. The vision of this Strategy is to have a socio-economic impact on each of the above areas. The combined effect of solving the problems under consideration is to remove the critical barriers to the optimal use of resources. Such an approach makes it possible to determine the priority directions of the state activity and to include them in the clearly formulated goal of the Strategy: ensuring sustainable economic development and, as a consequence, poverty reduction. The Republic of Moldova will make all the necessary efforts to ensure the transition to the development based on the concept of green economy, which promotes the principles of sustainable development and contributes to poverty reduction, including by ensuring a more efficient management in the field of sustainable development, by integrating and strengthening aspects related to environmental protection in all areas of socio-economic development of the country. Provided that these priorities are implemented, the annual per capita income by 2020 will be on average 12% higher than in the baseline scenario and 79% higher than in 2011. Assuming at least a proportional distribution of wealth, it is possible to estimate the effect of poverty reduction at the expense of average income growth.
