Fostering Transboundary Dialogue by Developing and Implementing National IWRM and Water Efficiency Strategies in Kyrgyzstan and Tajikistan

From WaterWiki.net

Description

This project will support the development of National IWRM plans for Kyrgyzstan and Tajikistan, and promote the linkage with similar on-going (Kazakhstan) and emerging (Uzbekistan) activities as well as transboundary dialogue and coordination in Central Asia in general. Based on the recently established "Roadmaps for Speeding up IWRM Planning" in Central Asia (UNEP-UCC & GWP, 2006), the project will be conducted within the framework of the EU Water Initiative, linked to the emerging process of "National Policy Dialogues" in the region, and acting as "pilot project" for the respective EC programme on IWRM in the transboundary context, as adequate. The overall project goal is to establish national processes and institutional mechanisms in Kyrgyzstan and Tajikistan, and strengthen transboundary dialogue, knowledge exchange and coordination in Central Asia to strategically plan, manage and utilize water resources in an integrated and efficient manner.
