Appendix A: Second Revised Water Sector Reforms Strategy Plan

The Water Sector Reform aims at laying the foundations for an Integrated Water Resource Management (IWRM) approach to the utilisation of Tajikistan’s water resources, based on decentralization and outsourcing services in a transitional process towards a shared responsibility between the Government of the Republic of Tajikistan and the civil society at large. The proposed reforms are based on generally accepted guiding principles for IWRM and aim at managing and developing water resources in a sustainable and balanced way, taking into account social, economic and environmental interests.
