Turkmenistan with its highly arid climate and scarce water resources is particularly vulnerable to the adverse impacts of climate change, such as water shortages and land degradation, serving as a push factor for migration from the agriculture-dependent regions of Turkmenistan. However, for some vulnerable groups, primarily families of migrants staying behind and women-led households, migration is not an option because they do not have economic and other resources. In this regard, the project will aim to contribute to the Government of Turkmenistan’s efforts on climate change adaptation by promoting solutions among national stakeholders at the local and central levels to assist people to stay in the context of adverse impacts of environmental degradation and climate change. In order to support the application of knowledge and innovative practices for the implementation of climate change measures (Outcome), it will inform national stakeholders of gender-sensitive water conservation/use practices (Output 1.1), ensure local communities, local administrations, self-governing bodies, families staying behind, and women-headed households have the knowledge and skills to use innovative water-conservation technologies (Output 1.2) and promote understanding among project beneficiaries of project achievements and available opportunities for further financing of these technologies (Output 1.3).
