SEMINAR ON SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT OF THE CASPIAN REGION YIELDS
CONCRETE RESULTS

From January 26-30, 2001 ISAR: Initiative for Social Action and
Renewal in Eurasia held the seminar, "Beyond Oil and Gas: The Role of
NGOs in finding Sustainable Solutions to Economic Development and
Environmental Protection in the Caspian Basin." The third in a series
of meetings focusing on areas critical to environmental protection in
the Caspian Basin, the seminar was held in Astrakhan, Russia and
focused on renewable resources as the basis for sustainable regional
economic development.

A team of trainers led the 25 participants-who represented
environmental NGOs from Azerbaijan, Georgia, Iran, Kazakhstan, Russia
and Turkmenistan-through sessions on alternative energy, marine
bioresources and aquaculture, sustainable agriculture, and
recreational and ecotourism.

During the seminar, participants agreed on general principles for NGO
cooperation to develop environmentally-sound economic development
throughout the Basin, as well as concrete project ideas. These ideas
included concrete plans to initiate the following activities:

· a joint tourism project between Iran and Astrakhan oblast;
· an analysis of the potential for projects utilizing solar, wind and
biomass energy;
· creation of an electronic database of "alternative" projects
throughout the Caspian basin;
· research on specific species that could be successfully harvested
though mariculture projects;
· an agreement to transfer technology from Russia to Turkmenistan to
support commercial production of sturgeon. This agreement was reached
with representatives from Bios, a local (Astrakhan) enterprise that
produces sturgeon for commercial purposes and conducts scientific
research to protect this endangered species.

Representatives from the Astrakhan regional administration, KaspNIRKH,
the Caspian Environment Program, Shell Oil, USAID and other local and
international organizations also participated in the seminar.

A roundtable discussion, which focused on exploring mechanisms for
international and intersectoral cooperation resulted in concrete
proposals for further interaction and information sharing with
representatives from each sector.

"Beyond Oil and Gas" is part of ISAR's Caspian program, a three-year
project to support and strengthen cooperative activities among
environmental NGOs in the Caspian Basin. The project is funded by
USAID, the Central Eurasia Project of the Open Society Institute,
Trust for Mutual Understanding, Rockefeller Family Associates, and the
Academy for Educational Development, and is a joint project of
ISAR-DC, ISAR-Moscow, ISAR-Central Asia, ISAR-Azerbaijan and Horizonti
Foundation.
