CAN ENVIRONMENTAL CHANGE BE MANAGED IN CENTRAL ASIA? FOCUSING ON WATER SCARCITY AND CIVIL SOCIETY
Journal Title: Academic Research International - Year 2013, Vol 4, Issue 4
Abstract
This paper examines the potential of civil society as an influential driver for environmental change in Uzbekistan and in promoting an inclusive approach, especially at the local community level. One of the main arguments is that effective efforts to ensure adequate and rational use of Uzbekistan’s diminishing water resources both in urban and rural settings require a strengthening of environmentally conscious and water-oriented civil society.
