The Dushanbe Water Resilience Project, exceeding $10 million, will modernize the Kofarnihon River intake to enhance water supply resilience and quality. It includes the introduction of a SCADA system for real-time monitoring and green corridors to mitigate flood risks and reduce urban temperatures.
A seminar held on April 29, 2026, presented the project, supported by the Asian Development Bank, focusing on its adaptation strategies for climate change. The project aims to ensure a stable water supply amid climate variations, with a master plan to manage future challenges, including a predicted temperature rise of 5.5°C by 2090 in Tajikistan. These enhancements will benefit residents through improved health and reduced contamination risk.
