- January 21, 2004—January 23, 2004. Roundtable on Community Involvement into Donor Organizations Projects
-
From January 21-23, 2004, the USAID Central Asia Natural Resources Management Program (NRMP) and the World Bank Institute-financed Community Empowerment Network Project (CEN) organized a joint field visit and roundtable on Community Involvement into Donor Organizations Projects for 22 community-based organization members, local authorities and journalists. The representatives travelled from Djizzak, Kashkadarya, Khorezm, Navoi, Samarkand Regions and the Republic of Karakalpakstan to exchange information about USAID’s development project and determine together “how local NGOs, initiative groups and mass media can contribute to make these projects sustainable in the future?”
During the event, participants learned about the NRMP Water District Improvements Project in the Zarafshan River Basin, evaluated the impact and importance of its implementation and developed a dialogue with local community members, authorities and public organizations. The participants had an opportunity to look at NRMP’s irrigation rehabilitation activities currently underway. This site visit gave the stakeholders a better understanding of the project’s benefits including more efficient water monitoring and allocation that will result in improved water management and increased agricultural yields.
