Abstract

Central Asia is highly vulnerable to adverse impacts of climate change and extreme weather events. Countries have identified water, agriculture, energy, human health, natural ecosystems, biodiversity, and forests as highest priority sectors for adaptation. This chapter examines current efforts and status of climate adaptation and identifies critical gaps for enhancing adaptation actions in Central Asian countries. It analyses the sub-region’s capacity to cope with climate impacts, making the links to the existing legislative basis and national policies, institutional arrangements, access to finance and decision-making process. It reveals that they share similar challenges to address climate change adaptation needs and development priorities.

For example, in Turkmenistan, the Government allocated funds to rehabilitate water infrastructure in cotton- wheat-, and rice-cultivated lands (UNECE 2013), while Kazakhstan regularly spends for agriculture and crop productivity in irrigated lands, using water saving techniques and incentives. In Kyrgyzstan and Tajikistan, the biggest share of the budget is annually allocated for disaster risk reduction and emergencies. Yet, again, they are not considered as funds for targeted activities to minimize climate-induced disasters.

Example is approval of Climate Adaptation and Mitigation Program for Aral Sea Basin (CAMP4ASB), which is bringing US$ 38 million from the International Development Association to the countries of Central Asia in 2016–2020.
