Reducing Transboundary Degradation in the Kura-Aras Basin
UNDP Project Document Governments of Armenia, Azerbaijan, Georgia United Nations Development Programme United Nations Office for Project Services Reducing Transboundary Degradation in the Kura-Aras Basin The Project will assist the Kura-Aras riparian states to 1) identify the principal threats and root causes of the trans-boundary water resources of the Kura Aras-River Transboundary Basin and 2) develop and implement a sustainable programme of policy, legal and institutional reforms and investments to address these threats. Balancing overuse and conflicting uses of water resources in transboundary surface and groundwater basins is seen as the critical issue in the basin and will be a principal focus of project attention from the very outset of project related activities. The Project will create synergies with and build upon a range of initiatives being undertaken by the countries themselves and those of bi-lateral and multi- lateral donors that have given priority to the Basin. The long-term development/environmental goal of the project is sustainable development of the Kura-Aras River Basin enhanced through ecosystem-based Integrated Water Resource Management approaches. The project objective is to improve the management of the Kura-Aras River Transboundary Basin through the implementation of a sustainable programme of policy, legal and institutional reforms and investment options using the Trans-boundary Diagnostic Analysis (TDA) and Strategic Action Programme (SAP) process. In order to achieve this objective, the project will update the TDA, support National IWRM plans which will be the base of the SAP, undertake a range of public involvement and awareness activities focusing on trans-boundary activities, and undertake demonstration projects that implement key aspects of the SAP. -

Water Is Important! Consultation for the Alazani-Iori River Basin
Water is important! Consultation for the Alazani-Iori river basin Alazani-Iori River Basin Georgia Alazani Iori Kura River Basin / Caspian Sea 16,500 km² 350,000 inhabitants Main tributaries: Ilto, Khodasheniskhevi, Stori, Kisiskhevi, Tchermiskhevi, Lopota, Lakbe, Ole A River Basin Management Plan (RBMP) is currently under preparation for the Alazani Iori river basin, and you can give your opinion. This important process will define, for the coming years the main actions to implement in your river basin in order to protect water resources from overexploitation, pollution and to improve monitoring and governance in order to ensure a sustainable development and the health of population. How can a River Basin Management Plan improve water resources? A river basin is a proven framework to deal with sustainable water management. As water stands at the heart of the challenges around food security, economic development, energy generation and climate change, the process of planning at river basin level sought to coordinate these competing water uses in a river basin to find a balance with social expectations and environment protection. Give your opinion! ☐ By answering to this questionnaire, you agree that your personal data will be used by IOWater, coordinator of the project EUWI+, to process your request. The data collected will not be used for any other purpose; they will be stored for the duration of the project (2016-2021) and archived five years after the project ends (in case of European audit).

Fresh Groundwater Monitoring in Georgia, EUWI+ project support to Georgia in implementing the EU Water Framework Directive and improvment the monitoring network Nana Kitiashvili1, Merab Gaprindashvili1, Christoph Leitner2, and Franko Humer2 1Ministry of Environmental Protection and Agriculture of Georgia, LEPL National Environmental Agency 2Umweltbundesamt - Environment Agency Austria Georgia is among the countries which have fresh groundwater distinguished for significant resources and drinking qualities of naturally high quality. Hydrogeological exploration and monitoring works for the purpose of identification, study and protection of fresh groundwater were not conducted in the period of 1990–2013. Considering the long-term termination of centralized researches and the intensively increasing anthropogenic pressures on the environment and on water in particular, the assessment and protection of groundwater resources becomes a very pressing issue. For this purpose, in 2013, on initiative of the Geology Department of LEPL National Environmental Agency of Georgia and the Czech Development Agency, restoration of the hydrogeological monitoring network and research of fresh groundwater using modern methodology began. The modern equipment was gradually installed on the water objects to obtain information about quantitative and qualitative characteristics in "online" mode and taking water samples for chemical and bacterial analysis twice a year. Currently, 56 water points (mainly wells) are being monitored. The database on quantitative and qualitative characteristics of fresh groundwater of Georgia is being expanding based on information received online from water points, fieldwork results, laboratory analyzes (chemical and bacteriological), and on the processing, analyzing and generalizing of the collected actual materials. -
