Project description
To inform policy making, planning and implementation of adaptation measures in the water and risk management sectors in Central Asia, based on high quality cryospheric data, model predictions and long-term climate information services, in order to increase the resilience of the local population to climate change.
Expected Results
The project will pursue the following outcomes and envisaged results: 1) Locally managed and sustained cryospheric monitoring networks in Central Asia provide steady and reliable data to national, regional and global databases. 2) National institutions in KG, TJ and KZ are able to provide user-oriented cryospheric climate information services to basin planning and disaster risk management authorities as a means to create awareness and inform policy and planning on medium- and long-term consequences of climate change. 3) National and sub-national basin planning and disaster management authorities in KG and TJ are capacitated to plan adaptation measures and facilitate investment in the water and disaster risk reduction sectors that respond to long-term cryospheric changes in 4 catchments. Key results achieved so far: 1) State-of-the-art cryospheric monitoring systems are established in KG, KZ and TJ. 2) Local scientists from KG, KZ, TJ and UZ (with a strong focus on women) are trained in data generation and processing. 3) Climate information services for medium and long-term prediction of water availability and hazards are developed with local partners. 4) Local implementing partners inform policy makers on climate impacts in the cryosphere through national and regional science-policy dialogues. 5) Adaptation measures are conceptualized in four catchments in KG and TJ together with national partners (basin planning and disaster management authorities)
