A PROJECT OF WATER RESOURCE PROTECTION

Eurasia Foundation and US Agency for International
Development finance a project of Support to Universal
Management of Water Resources in the South Caucasus.
The Ecological Vitality organization implements the
project in Armenia.

As a first stage of the project, information centers
were set up in three regional towns – Akhtala, Bolnis
and Khazakh – to familiarize people with ecological
issues. The second stage that was set in motion last
January aims at studying and presenting to the
population the condition of water resources. “Guide to
Hydroecologic Monitoring” book deals with Debed River
basin and other related issues. The guide looks to
providing residents of the riverbank with applicable
knowledge to organize and realize monitoring on water
quality.

The project pursues educational-informative goal to
help people find out the quality, pollution extent and
other things about river water.
