Abstract
This Strategy primarily focuses on addressing the economic impacts of the Covid-19 crisis. Its stated objectives include stabilizing the economy, creating new opportunities for businesses and citizens, and adapting state support mechanisms to the changing economic landscape.
The broader legal and policy context involves enhancing the capabilities of public services, particularly in healthcare and education, and ensuring sustainable economic growth through targeted investments and reforms.
The document outlines several key measures and action plans, including the implementation of state orders as investments rather than consumption to ensure long-term positive impacts on the economy. It emphasizes the need to concentrate state orders in critical policy areas, defining priorities and goals before creating specific procurement lists.
Additionally, it highlights the importance of supporting regional infrastructure, enhancing labor mobility, and adapting educational and healthcare networks to meet current needs, particularly in 21 regional centers.
The implementation plan involves a phased approach consisting of stabilization, reorientation, and growth. It specifies the need for a coordinated and targeted allocation of resources to maximize economic recovery. Institutional responsibilities are assigned to the Ministry of Economics and a Strategy Council, which will oversee the process and adapt to ongoing developments. Secondary themes include the importance of stakeholder involvement, including businesses and scientific representatives, and the necessity for monitoring and adjusting strategies in response to the evolving situation.
