After outlining the Academy’s mission, structure, and ac-tivities, the paper analyses its programmatic successes in higher education, research, and internationalization. These are weighed against structural challenges, especially fi-nancial and institutional uncertainty, and current geopolitical crises in Eurasia. These challenges undermine any fragile achievements the Academy’s faculty, students, and management have seen. The paper closes by providing a list of recommendations that address these issues.}, booktitle = {OSCE Insights}, pages = {1--13}, edition = {1}, author = {Doolotkeldieva, Asel}, publisher = {Nomos}, address = {Baden-Baden}, series = {}, volume = {} }
