WRHM2CA-PR206 vision

The vision of the WRHM2CA-PR206 is to establish a water radioactivity and heavy metals monitoring system using robust laboratory equipment and automated sensors adapted to the participating countries, through the development of a standard operating manual and a unified quality management system, which will improve data collection, storage, reliability of analysis and interoperability. This will use SAVE, a cyber-secure decision support tool developed by ISTC TechTeam and implemented in each partner country for daily operations and rapid data sharing during catastrophic events (e.g. floods, water pollution, earthquakes) and potential cascading effects.

The WRHM2CA-PR206 as a part of measuring the impacts of climate change on natural resources and critical infrastructure, contributes to reducing the risks associated with uranium legacy sites in Central Asia and water pollution by providing regional capacity for water monitoring systems for transboundary rivers and their tributaries, as well as expanding laboratory capacity related to uranium legacy sites in Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Uzbekistan and Kazakhstan. By creating a monitoring system that consists of a set of reliable laboratory equipment and sensors that are country-specific, compatible with each other, inexpensive to operate and maintain, a data set will be defined that can be transferred to beneficiaries in the event of an environmental crisis. 

The installed system will be integrated into the existing country's Environmental Security Management System or policy, offering the possibility of compiling other data from different national bodies to better understand and monitor climate change's impact on critical resources and infrastructures.
