ANNUAL REPORT 2014

In contrast, Uzbekistan’s exports of copper, gold, natural gas and cotton have allowedthe country to experience increased GDP growth, and its limited exposure to international financial markets have largely insulated it against the recent global economic downturn. ix Similarly, Turkmenistan has experienced strong economic growth, expanding by 10.2 percent in 2013x. The country’s main exports are gas and crude oil petrochemicals, but its economy also benefits from a thriving cotton industry.xi Yet everywhere, pockets of hardship persist, though precise data is often hard to come by: about 7.5 million Uzbeks lack access to safe drinking water, as do 4.8 million Tajiks and 2 million Kyrgyz. xii Calculations derived from World Bank statistics put the number of Turkmens without access at approximately 1.5 million.

Current challenges will likely be aggravated by emerging problems – in particular, climate change. Notably, the Central Asian region is warming faster than the global average, and climate change will hit the region sooner and harder. xiii Upstream glaciers are already experiencing accelerating loss of ice due to warmer temperatures, and projected precipitation decreases will further aggravate conditions in the already water-stressed basin.xiv
