🌿 A new chapter for nature in Central Asia 🌍

The official opening of Central Asia Office in Tashkent 🇺🇿, brought together national & regional conservation stakeholders to mark this important milestone.

We are deeply grateful to the @ecogov_uz for their support in making this vision a reality. 💚

🗣️ “This moment is far more than the opening of a new space – it is a powerful symbol of IUCN’s growing partnership with Uzbekistan and the broader Central Asian region.” – Dr Grethel Aguilar, @IUCN Director General

The #AralSea, once the world's 4th largest freshwater lake, its dramatic decline highlights the urgent need for global cooperation to conserve ecosystems and ensure a sustainable future. Today, innovative solutions in #Uzbekistan show that with strong leadership and collective action, recovery is possible.

It was great that at the time of the @BonnConvention #COP14 in Samarkand the Govt of Uzbekistan, designated Lake Julturbas as a #RamsarSite. Brilliant leadership from HE Minister @AzizAbduhakimov 🙏🏾👇🏾
I spoke to the media on why these wetlands matter for #AralSea system.

What an honour to be in Samarkand for #CMSCOP14

This was the first COP to be held in Central Asia, a region that is highly vulnerable to climate change.

Yet Central Asian countries are leaning in, taking action to protect migratory species & address our triple planetary crisis.

[Inger Andersen @andersen_inger]

What a COP14! What a team! What success! So proud of @BonnConvention team under Amy Fraenkel’s leadership for fab work at critical COP protecting migratory species. Could not catch full team in single photo as many were busy working for #CMSCOP14 because #NatureKnowsNoBorders

[Javokhir Abdukhalikov @abdukhalikov]

What would animals say if they could speak?

[Inger Andersen @andersen_inger]

The first-ever State of the World's Migratory Species report launched at #CMSCOP14 is a worrying read - and one we must react to.

➡️44% of migratory species are showing population declines
➡️22% of are threatened with extinction

[Javokhir Abdukhalikov @abdukhalikov]

Appreciate the commitment of the @theGEF and looking forward to the productive cooperation

[Carlos Manuel Rodriguez @cmrodrigueze]

#NatureKnowsNoBorders, and neither should environmental finance.

Conservation of migratory species is supported by many @theGEF projects and is deeply embedded in our biodiversity and transboundary cooperation programs.

I am excited to be in Samarkand for the #CMSCOP14
