| Field of activity / position: |
Office personnel / Assistant manager |
| Duties | Climate change poses a critical risk to national and regional security in Central Asia, compounding challenges in geopolitics, socioeconomics, and environmental issues related to water, energy, and land use. Projections indicate a warming of up to 6 degrees by the end of the century, with existing impacts including glacier retreat, desertification, floods, and droughts. Increasing glacial melt in the Tien Shan and Pamir mountains may boost short-term river runoff but diminish water availability in the medium to long term. Germany has actively engaged with Central Asian countries for over 30 years, employing a bilateral and regional approach. The Berlin Process, from 2009 to 2020, focused on transboundary water cooperation to prevent conflicts and foster regional collaboration. Afterward, the Green Central Asia Initiative was launched in 2020, expanding the dialogue to climate, environment, and security. The initiative, aligned with German climate foreign policy and contributing to the EU-Central Asia Strategy, resulted in a Regional Joint Action Plan. This plan includes projects on climate-sensitive water and climate risk management commissioned by the Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ). Green Central Asia is an integral part of Germany's Strategic Regional Partnership with Central Asia and contributes to the Team Europe Initiative (TEI). The TEI on water, energy, and climate change in Central Asia emerges as a flagship endeavour under the EU Global Gateway framework, showcasing the European Union's commitment to addressing critical challenges in the region. The Multi-Donor Action "EU4SustainableCentralAsia: Joint Action and Coordination on Water, Energy and Climate Change" is jointly co-financed by the European Union and the Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ)] and implemented by GIZ as part of the BMZ project "Climate sensitive Water Resources Management in Central Asia" and contributes to the Team Europe Initiative on Water, Energy and Climate Change in Central Asia.
