Project Development Objective
The objective of the Central Asia Hydrometeorology Modernization Project (CAHMP) is to
improve the accuracy and timeliness of hydromet services in Central Asia, with particular focus
on Kyrgyz Republic and Republic of Tajikistan.
Project description
The CAHMP proposes three components:
Component A: Strengthening regional coordination and information sharing: This component
will ensure that each of the National Hydrometeorological Services (NHMSs) in the region can
share, use, exchange and archive common hydromet data and information, and that each agency
has a comparable level of expertise in the production of information and delivery of hydromet
services.
Component B: Strengthening of Hydromet Services in Kyrgyz Republic: The component will
help strengthen Kyrgyzhydromet to ensure that it has the infrastructure and capability to
sustainably observe, forecast and deliver weather, water and climate services that meet the
country’s identified economic and societal needs.
Component C: Strengthening of Hydromet Services in Republic of Tajikistan: The component
will help strengthen Tajikhydromet to ensure that it has the infrastructure and capability to
sustainably observe, forecast and deliver weather, water and climate services that meet the
country’s identified economic and societal needs.
