The Water Supply and Sanitation Study is a new qualitative analysis of the legislative and institutional basis in Tajikistan, and was based on the previous Water Management Study in Tajikistan prepared by the “Oxfam GB” Association in 2007.
More than 60% of all water resources in Central Asia are concentrated in the glaciers of Tajikistan. Water supply systems have been operating for 30 - 50 years. There has been no adequate technical maintenance of these systems in the last 10-15 years, which resulted in their current poor technical capacities.
