Development of SEIS in Central Asia Achievements and lessons learnt Project financed by the European Union

SEIS development in Central Asia Main regional processes: Working Group on Environmental Monitoring and Assessment; Joint Task Force on Environmental Indicators; Main running projects: MONECA financed by the European Union: Environmental monitoring and reporting in Central Asia Support to the development of a State of Environment report in Turkmenistan supported by FOEN Countries involved: Kazakhstan, Kyrgyz Republic, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan

MONECA - Support to the fulfilment of JTF recommendations Recommendation 7: All produced indicators should be published online on websites of national agencies; 8: Indicators should be easily accessible from the main/home page of national agencies; 9: Indicators should be available on individual webpages or be structured by thematic area; 10: Indicators should be available in an interactive file format that permits easy navigation between indicators and indicator content; 11: Information on indicator structure and format, methodology, data validation as well as a brief interpretation, policy targets and trends should be provided on webpages presenting indicators; 12: Webpages containing the indicators should provide links to further reading; 13: Webpages should clearly specify the time of the last update of the content; 14: Indicator webpages and the main/home webpages of relevant agencies should be shared in the national language and at least a second language (English/Russian)

National State of the Environmental Report of the Kyrgyz Republic

Support to regional information exchange SIC Interstate Coordination Water Commission Development of an open regional web-portal on water quality (UNECE indicators) SIC Interstate Commission on Sustainable Development Improvement of the existing web-portal, development of regional indicators (e.g. protected areas) Both organizations cover 5 countries and have political support  relevant platforms to develop SEIS at the regional level

Selected lessons learnt

Embed SEIS development into existing processes Country-driven policy/institutional processes (e.g. UZ – e-government) Donor-driven processes (e.g. TJ – UNDP support to environmental monitoring) International MEA and working groups – recommendations for SEIS development and reporting commitments

Improve understanding through pilot activities SEIS principles are still poorly understood in CA Implementation steps are unclear to policy makers Piloting the development of online interactive State of the Environment Reports allows addressing most of the aspects of SEIS: Inter-Agency cooperation Legal and institutional upgrading Infrastructure development (storage, online reporting) Development of indicators and related analysis Data quality checking Development of accessible resources (internet)

Support to regional organizations Strengthens interstate cooperation Allows the development of indicators at the regional level  particularly relevant in the case of transboundary resources Can trigger the development of a regional position at international events (e.g. EfE)

Support countries’ involvement within international processes Raise awareness at the national level on the objectives of and synergies between various international processes (e.g. UNECE, UNEP, OECD processes) Support regional coordination before/after major events Ensure countries’ ownership and continuity in their participation
