Tajik Communities Learn to Protect their Environment
On October 31, USAID’s Water Users Associations Support Program (WUASP) organized an environmental protection public campaign “How to avoid pollution of canals” at School #64 in Chorteppa Jamoat, Rudaki District. The campaign began with awards for the winners of the children’s drawing and essay contests devoted to water preservation. Afterwards, the schoolchildren and the mobile theatre from the Shaartuz district performed short skits about equitable and effective distribution of irrigation water and rational use of drinking water. The publicity campaign ended with visiting a small exhibition of schoolchildren’s work.
USAID’s program, implemented by Winrock International, supports the effective use and distribution of irrigation water through improved management of irrigation systems, organization of associations for the collective use of the systems, and community involvement in the rational distribution of water.
