This fourth semi-annual environmental monitoring report for the reporting period from July 1 to December 31, 2017 covers Vose, Kulyab, Darvaz, Vanj, Rushan, Roshtkalinsky and Ishkashim districts, which are pilot areas of the ADB project "Building climate resilience in the Pyanj river basin, Republic of Tajikistan"(Grant 0352) for component 1 and 2 - irrigation and flood management. 2. The project aims to increase the sustainability of the communities located in the Pyanj River Basin to climate vulnerability and climate change. The project consists of four components: (i) more sustainable flood protection systems, including the restoration of a small infrastructure for flood management and building the capacity of disaster risk management committees; (ii) more sustainable irrigation systems, including rehabilitation of small irrigation infrastructure and capacity building of water user associations; (iii) more sustainable drinking water supply systems, including rehabilitation of drinking water infrastructure in highly vulnerable communities and building the capacity of water user groups; and (iv) a microfinance component to provide financial services to vulnerable groups, especially women, and to promote climate resilience. 3. Financing includes the following project components Component 1. Rehabilitation of infrastructure for flood protection and its climate protection in 10 jamoats. Component 2. Climate protection of irrigation systems in 8 jamoats. 4. Monitoring is carried out in accordance with environmental action plans (EMP / SEMP) and ADB's environmental safety policies, as well as environmental legislation of the Republic of Tajikistan. 5. This report describes the results of monitoring of construction works during the second 6 months of 2017. 6. Environmental monitoring consists of the following two parts: (1) compliance control with the environmental management plan (EMP / SEMP or EMP for specific site) on review the conditions necessary for compliance during the construction phase of the project; and (2) monitoring of environmental conditions. The EMP compliance assessment began with a review of the environmental management conditions required for compliance during the construction phase of the project. 7. The Executive Agency (EA) is the Agency for Land Reclamation and Irrigation under the Government of the Republic of Tajikistan. The EA established the Project Management Unit (PMU) to manage the coordination,

  • The Personalisation of Market Exchange in Gorno-Badakhshan, Tajikistan
    [Final draft submitted] ‘No debt, no business’: The Personalisation of Market Exchange in Gorno-Badakhshan, Tajikistan By Carolin Maertens ERC Project Remoteness and Connectivity: Highland Asia in the World Department of Social and Cultural Anthropology Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität Munich Citation: Maertens, Carolin (2017): “No debt, no business”: The Personalisation of Market Exchange in Gorno-Badakhshan, Tajikistan. In: R. Hardenberg (ed.): Approaching Ritual Economy. Socio-Cosmic Fields in Globalized Contexts. RessourcenKulturen 4. Tuebingen: 159-192. Keywords: debt, trade, market, transition, Islam, personalisation, Tajikistan 1 Introduction If one happens to travel in a shared taxi the roughly 600 km distance from Tajikistan’s capital Dushanbe to Khorugh, the capital of its mountainous Autonomous Province Gorno- Badakhshan, one is likely to enjoy the increasingly spectacular view on mountains and torrential rivers for at least fourteen hours. And if one happens to be brave enough and free from giddiness, it is advisable to get hold of a seat on the right side in direction of travel, preferably the front seat, since it provides by far the best view (and increases the chance to find a functioning seatbelt). Following the Panj river upstream on a dirt road for a great part of the journey, one can marvel at the steep canyons one passes through, at rock walls rising high above one’s head and at adventurous pathways vanquished by walkers, motorcycles, cars and donkeys right across the Panj river, which forms the border with Afghanistan. Apart from the visual entertainment, one may also wonder about the trucks that rumble together with passenger cars along the sometimes critically narrow road strip high above the river, shipping consumer goods to the Pamir region.
