This report follows a successful completion of Regional Workshop on
"Realization of Integrated Water Resources Management (IWRM) principles"
that held from May 4 to 6, 2005 in the Conference Hall of "Turkestan" Hotel,
Tashkent, Uzbekistan.
Three-day extensive training workshop was aimed to encourage water professionals
(participants) from Central Asia and Caucasus to get more involved in
planning and decision-making processes related to water development in the region by
influencing regional and national authorities to change and adapt policies toward IWRM.
A great emphasis was given to develop IWRM and water efficiency plans
with support to developing countries, through actions at all levels. Participants realized
that the main workshop objective was to bring together governments, water management agencies
and farmers for cooperation and define strategies to provide a rational water use in the region.
The successful completion of this workshop shows that IWRM approach
promotes the coordinated development and management of water, land, and related resources,
in order to maximize the resultant of economic and social welfare in an equitable manner
without compromising the sustainability of vital ecosystems.
