Central Asia : Water Accountability in Transboundary Chu and Talas River Basins
Effective water resources management requires data management capacities for proper decision-making at different scales. In this context, a modern, Multi-Level Distributed Water Information Systems is a management instrument that provides stakeholders’ gateways for judicious and sustainable water resources management. The project is aiming at introducing such a modern management information system in transboundary Chu and Talas river basins to improve water accountability and transparency.

Contesto |
Judicious and sustainable water resources management and planning require sufficient amounts of data for informed decision-making at different scales, from local to transboundary levels. Data transparency helps in trust and confidence building between different resource users, especially at interstate levels. To date, no such a modern Water Information System exists anywhere in Central Asia at basin scales. The relevance of such a modern WIS is well recognized by the key stakeholders in the transboundary basins of the Chu and Talas rivers shared by Kazakhstan and Kyrgyzstan which strongly support interventions in this area. |
Obiettivi |
The overall objective is to contribute to sustainable integrated water resources management in the region by promoting transboundary cooperation in Chu and Talas river basins, thus fostering peace and regional stability in Central Asia. |
