Tajikistan & Kyrgyzstan
Tajikistan & Kyrgyzstan: Through the High Pamirs 5 JUN – 22 JUN 2018 Code: 21820 Tour Leaders Assoc. Prof. Alex McKay, Russell Casey Physical Ratings Central Asian historian Dr Alex McKay, explores the extraordinary landscapes of the Tajik High Pamirs, land of the ‘Great Game’. Overview This tour is limited to 18 participants Rough and rugged Tajikistan is a place where few travellers venture. The Pamir Highway (M41) is the second highest road on earth (next to the Karakorum in Pakistan) and the majority of the highway is in Tajikistan. Our journey takes us through some of the most impressive mountain ranges on earth – the scenery on this drive is spectacular. This epic road trip through the Pamirs involves staying in some very basic guesthouses in multi-share rooms, as well as extensive travel on varied terrain at high altitude. It is not for the faint- hearted and is ASA’s first tour with a physical endurance level rated as 7 flags. All participants will be required to consult with their GP to confirm they are fit to travel. Tour Highlights Travel with Central Asian historian, Dr Alex McKay, on this cultural expedition through mountainous Tajikistan and Kyrgyzstan. Alex will be assisted by ASA's Central Asian tour leader Russell Casey. Journey through spectacular landscapes of glacial lakes, colourful meadows of flowers, turquoise alpine rivers, and stark mountain crags. Explore the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Penjikent, Central Asia's 'Pompeii', an ancient Sogdian Silk Road city destroyed by Arabs in the 8th century AD. Engage with the unique culture and beliefs of the blonde-haired and blue-eyed Pamiri Tajiks: Ismaili followers of the Agha Khan, descendants of the fabled medieval 'Assassins' as well as the original inhabitants of Central Asia. -

It is revealed that the concentration of heavy metals in the river water is far from the maximum permissible concentration, i.e., the ore mining and processing enterprise does not affect water composition variations. It is disco- vered that in the river lower reaches on the territory of the Republic of Uzbekistan the river water is mainly contaminated with drain-collector and municipal waste water. -

Tickamyer Professor of Sociology _________________________________ Jieli Li Director, International Development Studies _________________________________ Drew McDaniel Interim Director, Center for International Studies 3 Abstract GREZOV, RAVSHAN, M.A., June 2008, International Development Studies DEVELOPMENT PROGRAMS FOR POVERTY ALLEVIATION: COMPARATIVE STUDY OF MICROFINANCE PROGRAM IN TWO AREAS OF TAJIKISTAN (87 pp.) Director of Thesis: Ann R. Tickamyer This study analyzes the macro- and micro-level development programs for poverty alleviation in the Republic of Tajikistan. At the macro-level, this study examines the International Monetary Fund's macroeconomic stabilization programs and the World Bank's structural adjustment programs in collaboration with the Government of Tajikistan to highlight the challenges that the International Financial Institutions face in building sound economic development. At the micro-level, it analyzes a case of the UNDP program on microfinance to see if there is a statistically significant correlation between micro-loans and improved livelihoods. This research shows that poor governance and high corruption are widespread at the macro-level and thus policies should take a different approach through building strong capacities of local institutions and politicians. At the micro-level, however, the study concludes that microfinance is a more efficient and effective way to reach and empower the poor. -
Monitoring & Early Warning in Tajikistan
Tajikistan Monitoring & Early Warning Monthly Report Monitoring & Early Warning in Tajikistan MONTHLY REPORT APRIL 2012 1 Tajikistan Monitoring & Early Warning Report – April 2012 GENERAL TRENDS NATURAL HAZARDS During April, avalanches, mudflows and floods can be expected. Floods can be triggered by rain on snow and mudflows triggered by locally heavy precipitation or rapid snow melt. WEATHER Average precipitation but above average temperatures are forecasted for April for most of Tajikistan. ENERGY SECURITY Increased flows into the Nurek Cascade have resulted in the lifting of restrictions on electricity. Reports indicate that an agreement has been reached with Uzbekistan on the supply of natural gas, and deliveries restarted on 16 April. FOOD SECURITY Wheat flour prices in Khujand continue to drop while prices in Kurgan-Tube and Dushanbe remain stable, possible reflecting rail delivery delays (Kurgan-Tube) and limited roads access to the north due to heavy snow and avalanches (Dushanbe). Fuel prices have dropped slightly. The Ministry of Agriculture reports damage to crops and livestock due to severe weather in the fall of 2011/winter 2011-2012, as well as a delay in spring planting. MIGRATION AND REMITTANCES Reported migration rates for the first three months of 2012 are significantly above 2011 levels. Reported remittances are 25% above 2011 in March. These increases may indicate a reaction to shocks during the fall 2011 and winter 2011-2012. ECONOMY GDP increased from January to February by 6.9% and totaled 3,334.5 million Tajik Somoni (701 million USD). In January - February 2012, the foreign trade turnover equaled 827.1 million USD, with a negative trade balance of 415.3 million USD. -

Center for International Development and Environmental Research Abstract This paper analyzes the livelihood of the agro-pastoral communities of Western part of Tajikistan, the Zarafshan valley. The data were amassed on current fodder management practices in eighteen villages through households as well as agro-pastoralists and visual observation on local pasture areas. The interviews and discussions yielded more information on the decision-making processes that dehkans (farmers) employ to determine the quantity and composition of feed offered to livestock at particular times of the year. Among the influences to decisions were constraints to grazing and knowledge of appropriate lopping regimes for different animal fodder species. Varying degrees of access to off-farm fodder sources and the numbers of livestock kept by different households were also seen to affect fodder management decisions. Development activities aimed at labour use to fodder collection and the exchange of local knowledge regarding local fodder management are most likely to result in improvements in the levels of fodder supply for the majority of households in the short term.
