Snowlake & Biafo Hispar La Trek
Snowlake & Biafo Hispar La Trek Trip Highlights Traverse of the Biafo & Hispar Glaciers in the Karakoram Mountains Walking on world’s longest Glacier Crossing of Hispar la 5000m Pass Beautiful Hunza Valley TRIP AT GLANCE 5-6 NIGHTS HOTELS , 14 NIGHTS CAMPING, 13-14 DAYS STRENUOUS TREKKING MAX. ALTITUDE – 5150M / 16,400FT Key Destinations:Islamabad-Skardu-Shigar-Braldu-Baltoro Glacier-Biafo Glacier-K2-Hispar Glacier- Hunza -Karakoram Highway TREK BACKGROUND The interconnected Biafo and Hispar glaciers, with a combined length of 120 kilometres, provide an unlikely natural highway that cuts through the heart of the Karakoram Range. Starting out from Askole on the approach to the Baltoro and K2, this long and relatively committing glacial traverse is undertaken annually by just a handful of expeditions. This trekking holiday does just that in a 3 week experience for budding explorers. Walking either on the glaciers themselves, or through flower-carpeted ablation valleys, we encounter challenging as well as more straightforward trekking conditions. A highlight of the trip is the camp on the Hispar La (5151m), where we can watch the afternoon shadow creeping across Snow Lake to the mighty Ogre (7285m) and turn to see the sun setting over the mountains of Hunza and the distant Hindu Kush to the west. Stunning scenery and a genuine sense of adventure in a high mountain wilderness are key attractions of this magnificent trekking holiday inh the karakoram.

Gilgit- Baltistan)

In a short span of time, more than 4,500 community associations, namely village and women’s organisations (VWOs), were formed throughout the Region, introducing the local population to democratic governance grounded in civil society-based system. The phenomenon brought about producing significant public and agricultural infrastructures in less than 15 years. As a result, AKRSP turned into a laboratory and model of rural development for many South Asian realities. Underpinned by a qualitative case study and relevant literature review, the present research addresses the process of civil society construction in Gojal (sub-district of Hunza, Gilgit-Baltistan), including the role and engagement of AKRSP: introduced by depicting the scheme of traditional social institutions in front of novel patterns of social organisation, the paper delves into the emergence of – formal and informal – civil society organisations (CSOs) in the form of local support organisations (LSOs) as federations of VWOs and related networks, whose establishment in Gilgit-Baltistan (as well as in Chitral) is a recent phenomenon dating back to the mid-2000s. 1 Fazal Amin Beg, the main author of the paper, has academic background in Sociocultural anthropology, and Farsi literature. -

Revised Draft Experiences with Inter Basin Water
REVISED DRAFT EXPERIENCES WITH INTER BASIN WATER TRANSFERS FOR IRRIGATION, DRAINAGE AND FLOOD MANAGEMENT ICID TASK FORCE ON INTER BASIN WATER TRANSFERS Edited by Jancy Vijayan and Bart Schultz August 2007 International Commission on Irrigation and Drainage (ICID) 48 Nyaya Marg, Chanakyapuri New Delhi 110 021 INDIA Tel: (91-11) 26116837; 26115679; 24679532; Fax: (91-11) 26115962 E-mail: [email protected] Website: http://www.icid.org 1 Foreword FOREWORD Inter Basin Water Transfers (IBWT) are in operation at a quite substantial scale, especially in several developed and emerging countries. In these countries and to a certain extent in some least developed countries there is a substantial interest to develop new IBWTs. IBWTs are being applied or developed not only for irrigated agriculture and hydropower, but also for municipal and industrial water supply, flood management, flow augmentation (increasing flow within a certain river reach or canal for a certain purpose), and in a few cases for navigation, mining, recreation, drainage, wildlife, pollution control, log transport, or estuary improvement. Debates on the pros and cons of such transfers are on going at National and International level. New ideas and concepts on the viabilities and constraints of IBWTs are being presented and deliberated in various fora. In light of this the Central Office of the International Commission on Irrigation and Drainage (ICID) has attempted a compilation covering the existing and proposed IBWT schemes all over the world, to the extent of data availability. The first version of the compilation was presented on the occasion of the 54th International Executive Council Meeting of ICID in Montpellier, France, 14 - 19 September 2003. -
