INTRODUCTION 1.1. The Forum – An Annual International Event The Forum has now become an annual international event on a current development issue, which is at- tended by a wide range of development actors. Over the past six years, this event has been attended by NGOs, research organisations, UN agencies, donors and other development organisations. The topics in the previous four years have related to social mobilization, local self-governance, sustainable use of energy resources, cooperation with state structures at local community level, and mountain communities and busi- ness structures. This year the topic of the Forum was ‘Labor Migration in Central Asia – Challenges and Opportunities’. Forum 2009 was held in Dushanbe and САМР Kuhiston was as responsible organization. This event was conducted by CAMP network in cooperation with ACTED organisation. It was financially supported by BMU, SDC, ACTED, IOM and UCA. About 120 representatives of governmental organizations, local communities, and international organizations, and state representatives of Central Asian countries - from Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan and Tajikistan, as well as participants from Russia, Germany, Switzerland, UK, USA, India and Nepal participated at the Forum-2009. This report presents the key discussions of the conference. 1.2. Information about CAMP Kuhiston CAMP Kuhiston is a local non-profit and non-governmental organization striving to improve livelihoods in mountain regions of Tajikistan through supporting more sustainable use of natural resources. CAMP Kuhis- ton uses trans-disciplinary and comprehensive approach based on local, regional and international partner- ship and experience. CAMP Kuhiston develops, adapts and implements innovation, accessible and effec- tive technologies focusing on improvement of awareness and involvement of residents, representatives of local institutions, partner organizations and experts. CAMP Kuhiston was registered in Tajikistan as a local NGO in December 2006. Prior to the official registra- tion the organization gained institutional experience in the frameworks of implementation of the Central Asian Mountain Partnership regional program funded by the Swiss Agency for Development and Cooperation (SDC). The program covered three Central Asian countries – Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan and Tajikistan. Such regional approach allowed establishing cooperation and network between such NGOs as CAMP Kuhiston in Tajikistan, CAMP Alatoo in Kyrgyzstan, CAMP Consulting in Kazakhstan and the Alliance of Central Asian Mountain Communities (AGOCA). The alliance was set up in 2003 as the association of mountain villages of Tajikistan,

    From the Ground up Case Studies in Community Empowerment

    REBUILDING BROKEN LIVES After gaining Independence in 1991, Tajikistan endured economic collapse, civil war, and widespread hunger. To help rural people back on their feet, ADB financed a pilot microcredit-based livelihood project for women and farmers. Implemented through two international NGOs, the Aga Khan Foundation and CARE International, the experiment encountered many challenges, but produced several positive outcomes The women’s group composes a peaceful scene, without a hint of the tumultuous circumstances that spawned it. In a drab building in Vahdat district in western Tajikistan, a dozen women, mostly young, are bent over a long table, their fingers busy with embroidery. Along a wall behind them, older women are stitching a floral- patterned kurpacha, the thick, multipurpose Tajik quilt. Some of the girls are teenagers, who are only dimly aware of the horrors that followed Tajikistan’s unsought independence in 1991. But Zebo Oimatova, 52, a benevolent figure in traditional kurta (robe) and headscarf who is watching over the room like a mother hen, remembers it all—economic ruin, villages torn apart by civil war, the hardscrabble existence and, finally, a chance to rebuild shattered lives. In 2002, Ms. Oimatova, a warm-hearted woman of simple sincerity, was elected chairperson of a women’s federation, a community-based organization created under a pilot Asian Development Bank (ADB)-financed project to provide microcredit for women to start small businesses and farmers to improve crops. Despite being overawed—“I thought I could not manage the job because I am only average and not so well educated,” she confesses—Ms. Oimatova has seen her group grow from a handful to over 2,500 members and, importantly, become self-sufficient.

    Humanitarian Aid in Favour of the Population of Tajikistan Affected by Floods and Landslides

    EUROPEAN COMMISSION HUMANITARIAN AID OFFICE (ECHO) Emergency Humanitarian Aid Decision 23 02 01 Title: Humanitarian aid in favour of the population of Tajikistan affected by floods and landslides Location of operation: TAJIKISTAN Amount of Decision: Euro 350,000 Decision reference number: ECHO/TJK/BUD/2004/02000 Explanatory Memorandum 1 - Rationale, needs and target population. 1.1. - Rationale: On 13 and 14 July, torrential rains accompanied by heavy winds and landslides resulted in flooding in the Varzob district of Tajikistan, causing first of all, substantial damage to infrastructure. The major Dushanbe-Anzob-Istarafshan road was severely affected at several points and key bridges were destroyed or damaged. Although flooding is a normal phenomenon in Tajikistan at this time of year, the water levels this year have been much higher than in previous years. In addition to the damage to infrastructure, the floods have caused severe problems for the water supply to the capital, Dushanbe. The Varzob river which provides up to 60% of the city’s water supply, was highly polluted by landslides. Dushanbe’s water system, which is in terrible condition following years of neglect, is unable to cope. On 14 July, tap water was deemed unfit for human consumption and recommendations were made not to touch the contaminated water. Water supplies were rapidly shut down, with consequently over half of the 600,000 population in the capital having no access to water at all. Despite the warnings there is a serious risk that many people will become infected with disease through collecting and using unsafe water. From 15 July water has been provided by authorities from 44 water trucks.

    Contemporary Glaciation of the Pamirs

    MISCELLANEA GEOGRAPHICA WARSZAWA 1996 Vol. 7 Clzbieta Szulc-Rojan CONTEMPORARY GLACIATION OF THE PAMIRS GENERAL CHARACTERIZATION OF THE RANGE The Pamirs are located in Central Asia, their greater part lying within the >oundaries of the Commonwealth of Independent States, with the remaining >arts belonging to China and Afghanistan. The mountains take almost half of he surface of Tajikistan, i.e. some 70,000 sq. km (425 km of length and 280 km >f width). The range is composed of a system of ridges, primarily of latitudinal mentation, separated by deep valleys and dales (see Fig. 1). fig. 1. Orographic sketch of Pamir Mts. showing contemporary glaciation (after Bol'shaya..., 1975) 1 — mountain ridges and peaks, 2 — rivers and lakes, 3 — glaciers, 4 — boundary of Tajikistan 30 ELZBIETA SZULC-ROJAN Owing to the differentiation of landscape the Pamirs are divided into the eastern and western parts. In the Eastern Pamirs the bottoms of valleys and dales are located at the altitude of 3,500 to 4,500 meters a.s.l. Many of them are covered with moraine sediments. They are dominated by ridges of gentle shapes whose relative altitudes reach 1,200-1,800 meters. The Western Pamirs are strongly cut through by the narrow and deep valleys of rivers flowing westwards. Their bottoms are covered by the fluvioglacial and fluvial sediments. Slopes are partly covered with rock waste. Altitude differences between the valley bottoms and the peaks reach 5,000 meters. DIMENSION AND EXPOSITION OF GLACIERS Glaciers occupy 7493 sq-km in the Pamirs (Dol'gushin, Osipova, 1989), Fig.
