Research novelty. First of all, by studying the experience of other countries in sharing transboundary river resources, this project aims to explore and identify best practices and experiences that could be applied to the Syr Darya River case. This comparative analysis allows for a deeper understanding of the unique factors thatcontribute to the success or failure of Kazakhstan’s water diplomacy in different settings.
Secondly, by analyzing the effectiveness of Kazakhstani water diplomacy, this project will contribute to the growing body of knowledge on transboundary water management.
Thirdly, by developing policy recommendations for resolving transboundary water disputes along the Syr Darya River, this study provides valuable insights for policymakers, water management practitioners and researchers.
Last but not least, with a focus on Kazakhstan's unique challenges and opportunities, this study will shed light on the intricacies of transboundary water cooperation in the region, which is often overlooked in the global water management discourse.
This study will take a qualitative research method such as document analysis and archival research. Primary and secondary sources include research documents such as treaties, agreements and policy documents related to transboundary water management.
By examining the political, social, and economic factors that influence transboundary water management in CA, as well as existing institutions and agreements, we expect to derive the following results:
1. Exploration of potential models and the best practices from other regions, such as the Mekong River Commission, which could be adapted and applied to improve water cooperation in CA.
2. Recommendations for strengthening regional cooperation through the integration of civil society, and the establishment of independent monitoring and assessment units.
