Kazakhstan presented five key initiatives to solve urgent problems in the field of water resources at the One Water Summit. Special Representative of the President of the Republic of Kazakhstan for International Environmental Cooperation Zulfiya Suleimenova outlined the country's plans in the field of water policy and environmental cooperation.Thus, Kazakhstan intends to ratify the UN Protocol on Water and Health. Today, the country is a party to the UN Convention on the Protection and Use of Transboundary Watercourses and International Lakes, as well as the UN Convention on the Law of Non-Navigational Uses of International Watercourses. Another important step will be the implementation of a program to improve the efficiency of water use in agriculture, developed jointly with the French Development Agency.One of the key initiatives was Kazakhstan's joining the global Freshwater Challenge program aimed at preserving ecosystems. The first project under this program involves the restoration of the Aksuat lake system in the Naurzum Nature Reserve.Considerable attention is paid to the restoration of the Northern Aral Sea. Currently, preparations are underway for the second stage of the Northern Aral conservation project, aimed at developing infrastructure and improving the hydrological state of the Northern Aral and the Syrdarya River Delta, as well as supporting a stable economic, social and environmental situation in the Kyzylorda region.The unique lake Balkhash was also in the spotlight. Kazakhmys, the largest private company in Kazakhstan, will allocate $5 million to preserve and maintain its ecosystem, as well as adjacent wetlands."There are internal reservoirs that also deserve our attention. The unique lake Balkhash is one of them. Half of its water is salty, and the other half is fresh. Its southern part is the wetlands of the Ramsar Convention. With permission, I would like to announce that the leading private company in Kazakhstan, Kazakhmys Corporation, will allocate 5 million US dollars for projects aimed at preserving the ecosystem of the lake. We are proud that representatives of the private sector are ready to take on such ambitious challenges and show leadership in the conservation of aquatic ecosystems.",- Suleimenova indicated.It should be noted that on the sidelines of the One Water Summit, a trilateral agreement was signed between the Ministry of Water Resources and Irrigation, the French Development Agency (AFD) and the Bureau of Geological and Mining Research of France (BRGM).The agreement with AFD and BRGM is aimed at the study and sustainable management of water resources in the Lake Balkhash basin. The document provides for the measurement and analysis of water conditions, modeling of climatic and anthropogenic influences, as well as forecasting the water balance until 2040.One of the goals of the project is to optimize the operating mode of the Kapchagai reservoir to stabilize the level of Lake Balkhash. According to the results of the study, measures will be taken to clean up rivers, prevent soil degradation and water pollution, develop fisheries and eco-tourism, as well as create a regulatory framework for lake protection.The fifth initiative, the Water Towers Partnership, aims at global efforts to close knowledge gaps on glaciers by supporting research, integrating local knowledge about glaciers and supporting young glaciologists.It should be recalled that the President of the Republic of Kazakhstan made a welcoming speech at the opening ceremony of the One Water Summit and expressed gratitude to France, Saudi Arabia and the World Bank Group for their assistance in organizing this event.One Water Summit 2024 has become a platform for discussing global challenges related to water resources management and developing joint solutions at the international level.

The mountainous regions of our republic pose an avalanche threat to varying degrees. Snow avalanches are most often observed on the slopes of the mountains of the Ile Alatau ridge (Almaty city) and in the Altai Mountains (East Kazakhstan region). The most dangerous periods when avalanche activity occurs are considered to be the beginning of winter and the beginning of spring. This year, 213 spontaneous avalanches were recorded, with a total volume of about 1.2 million m3. In general, the snow height is currently within the normal range or exceeds the norm."Since the beginning of the year, in order to ensure the safety of the population, roads, and ski resorts, 112 preventive avalanche descents have been carried out, the total volume of dumped snow amounted to 219 thousand m3. During dangerous periods, checkpoints were set up to restrict access of the population and vehicles to the avalanche risk zone. Prior to the start of the dangerous period, appropriate recommendations were issued to local executive bodies, owners of residential buildings and heads of organizations whose facilities are located in avalanche risk zones," said Yerbolat Sadyrbayev, head of Kazselezashchita State Institution. Skiers, tourists, and climbers are most at risk. Therefore, in order to avoid death and not be caught in an avalanche, every person going to the mountains is obliged to learn the basic rules of behavior in the mountains and during avalanches. If an avalanche warning has been announced, it is advisable to refrain from hiking in the mountains. If there was no warning, then before setting off, it is necessary to know meteorological forecasts, make travel routes, refrain from hiking and skiing in unprepared areas, move along marked trails, as well as find out as much as possible about the terrain in which there is a risk of avalanches, avoid dangerous slopes as much as possible (this is a simple rule of behavior it is quite capable of saving a life). If heavy snowfalls were recorded before going to the mountains, it is better to postpone the hike for two or three days, and in the absence of avalanches, wait until it settles. Also, it is very important not to go to the mountains alone or together: it is advisable to stay in a group. This will always provide insurance in case of avalanches, for example, if the group members are tied with avalanche tape, this will make it possible to detect a satellite covered with snow. Before going out into the mountains, it is advisable to bring an avalanche transceiver with you, which will make it possible to find a person trapped in an avalanche. It is very important not to forget to bring your mobile phone with you (it has already saved the life of more than one person). It is also a good idea to take special avalanche backpacks, which provide a system of inflatable pillows that make it possible for a person caught in an avalanche to "float up". In the mountains, you need to move only along roads and paved trails of valleys and along mountain crests, while it is very important to remember that you can not go out on steep snow-covered slopes, cross them across or move in a zigzag. If an avalanche has fallen high and there is time to do something, it is very important to remember one of the basic rules of behavior when an avalanche is rushing at you: to get out of the way of a rushing stream to a safe place, you need to move horizontally, not downwards. You can also hide behind a ledge, preferably in a cave, climb an elevation, a stable stone or a strong tree. If it so happened that it did not work out to get away from the avalanche, one of the rules of conduct says that you need to immediately get rid of all the things that will drag into the rushing stream and restrict movement: from a backpack, skis, poles, an ice axe. It is necessary to immediately start making your way abruptly to the edge of the stream, doing everything possible to stay at the top, and if possible, catch on a tree, stone, bush. The Ministry of Emergency Situations, due to the unstable state of snow on the slopes of the mountains, recommends not to go out on the snow-covered slopes of the mountains, so as not to provoke avalanches, and refrain from hiking in the mountains.
