Improving understanding and knowledge of adaptation measures in the context of past, present and future climatic conditions; Building capacity to apply knowledge with the aim of ensuring access to technologies, funds, design and application of adaptation activities; Promoting opportunities to integrate adaptation issues into policy-making, strategic development and planning.
The TA evaluated possible investments in the following areas: (i) Improved Water Management for the Inter Farm System, (ii) Improved Water Management for Pumped Extension Systems, and (iii) Improved Water Management for Conveyance, Application and Drainage of Improved Supplies
The project is to improve urban water supply and sanitation services in Surkhandarya province
The TA and its ensuing program fits with the CPS focus on provision of access to safe water supplies and sanitation services, which is considered as the most powerful link between environmental improvement and poverty reduction – with an especially strong impact on improved maternal and child health
The project is to thoroughly test and prepare, through the Investment Program, establishment of modern SWM systems and remediation of old ‘truck and dump’ practices in uzbekistan cities and regions, which is poised with challenges.
The project focuses on the soft component of this major World Bank (WB) irrigation project, and further promotes Integrated Water Resources Management (IWRM), strengthens capacities of 7 Administrations of Irrigation Systems (AIS) and 65 Water Consumer Associations (WCA), establishes and equips 62 Farmer Field Schools (FFS) to disseminate best water saving practices.
Integration of Uzbekistan`s commitments within the frame of CBD for 2011-2020 into the expedient documents of national and enterprise development through updated “action planning in support of biodiversity” with the wide participation of all stakeholders.
Recent studies funded by the OFID under Phase I-IV of this project exposed the potential for storing seasonal and temporary originating excessive water flows in the aquifers of the Fergana Valley, located in the Syrdarya River upstream. Potential and free capacities were determined to store excessive water flows in the aquifers and technologies were identified for recovery the stored water for agricultural use. However to upscale these technological interventions to the basin scale this study to be continued for different environments of the Syrdarya River and Amudarya River basins.
This study focused on: (1) evaluating the impact of irrigation system rehabilitation projects on soil salinity levels; (2) and examining alternative methods of salinity management, including drainage pond and licorice cultivation on salt-affected soils. This study targeted on salt-affected soils of Dustyk canal command area and Karakalpakistan.
The project objectives is increase awareness on the most problematic environmental issues in water management, environmental governance and climate change (CC) to enhance regional and EU-CA cooperation and partnership
