This Program primarily addresses the national water sector development within a legal and policy framework, emphasizing sustainable management, protection, and utilization of water resources from 2010 to 2025. It underscores the importance of water as a natural resource integral to economic development, environmental preservation, and social stability, operating within broader international commitments such as UN resolutions and regional agreements. The legal principles highlighted include equitable and reasonable sharing of transboundary water resources, non-harm to neighboring countries, and adherence to international conventions, although Tajikistan has not ratified some of these treaties. The policy context involves aligning national legislation, with evolving economic and environmental conditions, and integrating international standards into domestic law. Key measures outlined include the development of comprehensive action plans for water resource management, infrastructure rehabilitation, and modernization, with specific activities such as constructing and restoring water supply, irrigation, drainage, and hydropower facilities. The document details strategies for legal reform, institutional capacity building, and stakeholder engagement, emphasizing the importance of legal compliance, enforcement mechanisms, and procedural transparency. It also highlights the necessity of establishing information systems, monitoring, and evaluation frameworks, with responsibilities assigned to various government agencies and international partners, and sets timelines for phased implementation. Secondary themes involve procedures for disaster management, water quality control, and adaptation to climate change, all aimed at ensuring effective governance and sustainable water use in line with explicit policy directives.
