Training data is for the period of 3 months, and is presented by each component: Irrigation Water Management, Agriculture Development and Livestock Enhancement, Nutrition Enhancement Home Economic and Gender Equity and Economic Development Support Services. The Family Farming Program expresses our gratitude to USAID for financial support and guidance throughout the program. Special appreciation and acknowledgement goes USAID Family Farming staff who provided technical consultation, information and assistance to implement the goal and objectives of the program. In particular, we recognize Mr. James Campbell, Mr. William C. Bell, Mr. Hershel Weeks, and Sanjay Rimal for their contributions. ANNEX 9 – TRAINING REPORT 1 AN ANNEX TO THE FAMILY FARMING PROGRAM FOR TAJIKISTAN YEAR 3 QUARTER 2 REPORT SUMMARY TRAINING OBJECTIVES Since 2011, the USAID Family Farming Program (FFP) has provided training sessions including demonstrations and field days to target beneficiaries in twelve districts in Khatlon Oblast. The aim of the training is to disseminate information to support agricultural development, especially irrigation water management and knowledge of nutrition. Beneficiaries gain the information needed to increase their productivity and improve their health, especially health of mothers and children. METHODS OF TRAINING Each training session has clear objective statements which introduce the concepts that will be delivered in the session. These objectives answer the question “why does FFP provide this training?” Farmers prefer presentations and demonstrations (especially field days and cross visits) as training methods. In nutrition, which draws large numbers of female participants, training sessions include formal presentations, informal discussions, and demonstrations. They also provide opportunities to apply new skills and knowledge in the field. TRAINING TOPICS To achieve the training objectives, this quarter FFP provided training on the following topics: Organizational Leadership Skills Developments for Water User Associations (WUA); Financial Management of WUA; Conflict Management Training for WUAs; Best Practices of Planting and Growing Tomato, Sweet Pepper and eggplant seeds in tunnel; Best Practices of Growing Cabbage & Cauliflower: seed & land selection, planting, watering, weed & pest control, harvesting, storage & marketing; Best Practices of Growing Tomato and Cucumbers in Greenhouses; Demonstration: on nutritious and diverse diets for pregnant and lactating women; Education sessions on breastfeeding and complementary feeding for children from 6 to 24 months; Education sessions on hygiene and drinking water sanitation; Family budgeting; Grant management. As a result of these sessions participants will be able to apply their knowledge and skills in their daily life. A total of 9421 individuals attended 486 training sessions for the period of January- ANNEX 9 – TRAINING REPORT 2 AN ANNEX TO THE FAMILY FARMING PROGRAM FOR TAJIKISTAN YEAR 3 QUARTER 2 REPORT March 2013. Of these, 5170 participants were male (54.9%), and 4251 were female (45.1%), demonstrating the active participation of both sexes. The Nutrition Enhancement Home Economic and Gender Equity had the highest participation of women compared to other components. Training for the Agriculture Development and Livestock Enhancement and Economic Development Support Services components largely drew participants of both sexes, with the exception of the training offered on Grants Management for Water User Associations members, which was primarily attended by males. The highest participation of men was in training sessions for the Irrigation Water Management Component, which is expected as only Dehkan certificate holders can be the members of water user associations (WUAs), and most of these holders are men. CONCLUSION AND RECOMMENDATION FFP is reaching large numbers of beneficiaries in the target zones, including male and female family members. Going forward, we will continue to invite and encourage participation male and female community members. For training that is largely attended by one gender more than the other, FFP will increase efforts to engage eligible members of the opposite sex in the training. PLANS FOR THE NEXT QUARTER In the next quarter (April – June 2013), FFP staff will monitor and evaluate training sessions for each component, and conduct an assessment of Knowledge, Attitude and Practice (KAP) of select program beneficiaries.

    Mediating the Conflict in the Rasht Valley, Tajikistan The Hegemonic Narrative and Anti-Hegemonic Challenges Accepted version of an article published in Central Asian Affairs: Lemon, Edward. " Mediating the Conflict in the Rasht Valley, Tajikistan", Central Asian Affairs 1, 2 (2014): 247-272. Edward Lemon Department of Politics, University of Exeter [email protected] Abstract Between 2009 and 2011 Tajikistan experienced one of the worst bouts of political vio- lence since the end of the country’s civil war. The fighting was concentrated in the Rasht Valley, an area traditionally associated with opposition to the regime. As a result, the government attempted to fix the meaning of the conflict around the signifiers “international terrorism” and “radical Islam.” This framing directly reproduced the regime’s hegemony through legitimating the removal of opponents and contrasting the Tajik “self” with the terrorist “other.” The hegemonic narrative was incomplete and contained inconsistencies. As a result, anti- hegemonic actors attempted to under- mine its legitimacy. Although these critical articulations destabilized the narrative, due to their dispersed and divergent nature, it ultimately maintained its hegemonic position. Keywords Tajikistan – terrorism – Islam – conflict – framing On April 15, 2011, Tajik television displayed graphic images of militants killed by government forces during a special operation. The video contained images of illegal weapons caches, mountain hideouts, bomb-making books, and Islamist motifs. The narrator labeled the militants as “international terrorists” (bain- almilli terroriston). He stated that these men wanted to overthrow the government and enforce an Islamic state based on shari’a law in Tajikistan. Long-time government opponent Mullo Abdullo led the group.
