Tajikistan has established an elementary legislative and institutional base for actions related to climate change. • State Working Group on facilitating climate change effects was established in Tajikistan in 1998 consisting of representatives from various key Ministries and agencies; • Governmental Agency for Hydrometeorology of Environment Protection Committee under the Government of Tajikistan coordinates measures on climate change problem-solving in Tajikistan

  3. Strategic Documents • First National Message (FNM) and National Action Plan (NAP) have been developed at the support of 100 acting experts from 30 Ministries, Research Institutes and NGOs; • First National Message of Tajikistan on climate change was developed in 2001-2003 and in October 2002 it was presented at Framework Convention Secretariat and at the 8th Session of UN FCCC conference (October 22 – November 1, 2002) in New-Delhi, India; • FNM of Tajikistan allowed informing Framework Convention parties on volumes and dynamics of greenhouse gas emissions, natural resources vulnerability rates, population’s climate change-related economics and health, measures undertaken and planned for implementation to facilitate climate change effects; • NAP defines basic priorities and focuses of measures of Tajikistan on climate change problem-solving, need for capacity development on further addressing and expansion of scientific knowledge on climatic system, key trends of international cooperation.
