In January 2026, within the framework of the Tajikistan Resilient Landscape Restoration Project (RESILAND Tajikistan), based on a business plan for the rehabilitation of an irrigation canal to irrigate 18 hectares of land, construction materials were procured and delivered to the members of the Common Interest Group (CIG) of Baravni Tor village, Vanj District, GBAO. These materials included 1,000 meters of pipes with a diameter of 200 mm.
Sustainably managed forests and pastures protect soil from erosion and contribute to the restoration of degraded lands. In mountainous areas, the restoration of tree and shrub cover and the regulation of livestock grazing stabilize slopes and preserve water resources. These measures support the natural recovery of ecosystems, enhance landscape resilience, and improve the living conditions of local communities.
On 22 January 2026, an international conference titled “Health and nutrition in a changing climate” was held in Ashgabat, focusing on food security and the impact of climate change on public health and ecosystems. The event brought together representatives of Central Asian countries, international organizations, and the expert community.
