Kurdistan Regional Government
A Vision for the Future
The Kurdistan Region – Iraq has achieved dramatic development in the past decade. Although challenged by damage to our society and infrastructure from years of war, genocide, forced displacement, and the destruction of more than 4,000 villages at the hand of the previous Iraqi regime, we have begun a sustainable development process.
With the appointment of the Seventh Cabinet this spring, and with opportunities for improvement still available to our Region, the Ministry of Planning of the Kurdistan Regional Government (KRG) has developed a Regional Strategic Development Vision for 2020.
We have produced this Vision for three reasons.
First, we wanted the population to know how we envision the Region developing and how the
KRG is working to improve the people’s well-being.
Second, we wanted to unify present thinking into an overall plan for the new cabinet in order that
all parts of government will work together for a common goal.
Third, we wanted to provide a framework under which the individual ministries could develop their detailed policies and goals through 2017, and so included five-year policy priorities.
In the Kurdistan Region of 2020, our private sector will take the lead in providing jobs and economic growth. Our government will operate efficiently and effectively to enable businesses to succeed and all people in our Region to fulfill their highest potential.
Our vision for 2020 is that all people in our Region will enjoy the benefits of freedom, health, welfare, and economic security and opportunity. This document lays the foundation for the achievement of that vision.
