Summary
The MoE has requested extension of InfoTuk to provide internet to more schools in urban areas in other Velayats. UNDP should agree to the requested extension, but not to support the extension of internet to additional schools in urban areas. Instead, UNDP should extend InfoTuk 2 by 2 years to achieve fuller delivery against its other three expected outputs and consolidate its achievement in the 20 schools already provided with the internet. If and when political, technical and economic considerations permit, InfoTuk 2 should extend the internet to additional schools in remote rural areas. Extension to such schools would generate far more useful lessons than mere extension to other urban centres and it should point to ways of addressing growing digital divides between rural and urban areas and between the rich and the poor in Turkmenistan. Addressing rather than exacerbating such divergencies will be more consistent with the UN's approved strategy in the country.
