Integrated Water Resources Management
The web site is dedicated to the outreach of integrated water resources management in Central Asia based on the case study of one of the major projects in the region in this field “IWRM-Fergana”.
The web site of the sub-regional program “Speedup of IWRM-2005 Objectives Implementation in Central Asia”.
The project objective is to develop an integrated regional model for strategic planning of water resources management (WRM) in twinned river. Three river basins were selected for modeling in different regions (the Neckar river, the Oueme river, and the Chirchik river in Germany, Benin, and Central Asia, respectively). The main objective is to promote capacity building of river basin organisations, to improve their expertise, and to help them, through twinning, to overcome water management problems mainly by:
The CAWa project intends to contribute to a sound scientific and a reliable regional data basis for the development of sustainable water management strategies in Central Asia.
The project objective is to increase the productivity and financial and environmental stability of agriculture and the profitability of water users in the project areas. As such it contributes to the further development of private farming, more secure livelihoods, increased environmental stability, greater social harmony, and to improved effectiveness of water resources management.
The objective of the Water Productivity Improvement at Plot Level project is to strengthen the capacity (in terms of knowledge, extension material and methods) of the differ-ent actors in the agricultural innovation system through strategic alliances for conveying solid and adapted extension messages relating to water productivity improvement at plot level to the farmers.
The project aims to improve the operation of the irrigation system and ensure efficient water allocation. It also aims at finding a balance and smoothening out the water flow fluctuations originated by the operation of the upstream Toktogul Power Cascade and Uch-Kurgan main waterworks. |

Regional cooperation
The overall goal of the Asian Development Bank Regional Technical Assistance “Improvement of Shared Water Resources Management in Central Asia” (RETA 6163) is to achieve sustainable and efficient water management in the region. The purpose of the TA is to help the CARs strengthen their cooperation in the management of shared water resources in the Aral Sea Basin and other transboundary basins.
The Information-Consulting Center (ICC) on European Commission Seventh Framework Programme (FP7) has to promote and develop long-term international collaboration between European and Central Asian research groups. |

Networks
Network “GWANET — Gender and Water in Central Asia”: improves gender awareness among the water sector stakeholders at regional, national and local levels, and strengthen their capacity in incorporating gender issues into the decision-making process.
The web site is created for an exchange of opinions, experience, the information on the most different aspects of water economic activities and is based on professional unity and mutual understanding. |
