During her visit, Akiko Fujii learned in detail about the activities of the Situation Center established under the Committee on Ecology and Climate Change of the Republic of Karakalpakstan. The results of a project implemented jointly with the United Nations Development Programme were presented there.

For reference: 37 automated monitoring stations have been installed in the region. These stations measure the smallest and most dangerous particles in the air (PM2.5 and PM10), toxic gases (CO, NO₂, O₃, H₂S), and meteorological parameters (temperature, humidity, pressure, and wind speed) in real time.

In addition, automatic data updates through the AURISGREENTECH system reduce the influence of human factors and ensure 100% information accuracy.

Akiko Fujii also highlighted the work of the Committee’s Testing Laboratory. The laboratory has been fully equipped to analyze water, soil, and air samples in accordance with international standards, allowing not only to determine pollution levels but also to predict environmental risks and develop operational solutions.

The UN representative praised the committee’s work, staff training, and technical capabilities, emphasizing that the UN will continue to support projects aimed at improving the ecological system of Karakalpakstan.

This visit was an important step towards the region’s adaptation to climate change, reducing environmental pollution and achieving sustainable development goals.
