A meeting of the Basin Council took place in Naryn, as reported by the Ministry of Water Resources, Agriculture, and Processing Industry. Participants of the meeting focused on issues of water resource management, based on the principles outlined in the Water Code of the Kyrgyz Republic. This code assumes an approach where management is conducted not by administrative boundaries, but by river basins as a unified drainage system. Such a method allows for coordinated and effective decisions that encompass multiple regions.
The agenda included issues related to the use, protection, and development of water resources in the Naryn River basin, as well as the impact of climate change on the local population and the economic situation.
It is worth noting that the Basin Council includes representatives from government bodies, local self-governments, and public organizations, making it an important platform for coordinating water policy. Effective water resource management remains a crucial condition for the sustainable development of the country.
