WORK IN UZBEKISTAN

RESEARCH FINDINGS

  1. Limited Awareness: Communities in the Aral Sea region lack access to information about the causes and impacts of the crisis, hindering their understanding and engagement.

  2. Educational Gap: Significant number of schools in the Aral Sea region currently do not include the Aral Sea Crisis in their curriculum, leaving students uninformed about critical regional environmental issues.

  3. Language Barrier: Much of the research on the Aral Sea Crisis is published in foreign languages, making it inaccessible to local communities.

  4. Barriers to Progress: Regional NGOs identify the absence of effective communication and education as a significant obstacle to public adoption of sustainable solutions for the Aral Sea Crisis.​​

OUR NEXT STEPS

  1. Educational Screenings: Host workshops in schools and universities featuring our documentary to engage and inform youth about ongoing climate and environmental issues in Uzbekistan.

  2. Resource Development: Create comprehensive educational materials, including videos, guides, and posters, that explain the causes, consequences, and actionable solutions for addressing the Aral Sea Crisis.

  3. Collaborative Outreach: Partner with schools, development agencies, and NGOs in Uzbekistan to introduce and implement a tailored educational toolkit focused on the Aral Sea Crisis.

  4. Policy Advocacy: Publish a policy recommendation report to strengthen education and communication strategies on climate and environmental issues in Uzbekistan.

The Aral Sea Crisis began under the strict censorship of the Soviet government, which limited the availability of information about the disaster to the Uzbek public. This legacy of restricted access to environmental knowledge persists, leaving many without opportunities to learn about the Aral Sea Crisis and its ongoing challenges.
 
We’re tackling this lack of communication—empowering communities with the knowledge they need to drive meaningful change.
