00:00Currently, the greatest challenge for Central Asia region is the state of their glaciers.

00:06As you know, they are melting, and they are melting fast.

00:09So, we are facing that challenge, and the issue here is how we face that together.

00:17With its vast mountain ranges and the largest number of glaciers in Central Asia, Tajikistan

00:31is a vital place to highlight the role glaciers play in global water challenges.

00:36Today, the capital city, Dushanbe, is hosting a high-level international conference focused

00:42on their protection.

00:43I cordially welcome you to the Republic of Tajikistan at the International High-Level Conference

00:53on Glaciers Preservation, and hereby declare the conference open.

01:00The event marks the start of the International Year of Glacier Preservation, declared by the

01:05United Nations, a global effort to raise awareness about melting glaciers.

01:10The UN resolution behind it was initiated by Tajikistan, which is now calling for urgent

01:16action to protect these vital water sources.

02:05It has already retreated by more than one kilometer over the past 80 years.

02:10During the three-day event, official delegations witnessed the real-life impact of glacier melt firsthand.

02:17Adaptation is what we have to do now because the glaciers are melting.

02:21We have to protect and preserve them.

02:23That will require science, but we also have to look at the agenda for the SDGs

02:27to see how we can protect livelihoods, how we can protect economies.

02:30And that needs specific investments.

02:33Food security is a key part of the glacier-related risk agenda and a major focus of the conference.

02:39At the Glacier Festival, held during the event, organizers highlighted how melting glaciers

02:44threaten agriculture, which supports 70% of local livelihoods.

02:50Now, major financial institutions are stepping in to help countries adapt.

02:54We just had heard the announcement from the vice president of the Asian Development Bank

03:00and the executive director of the Green Climate Fund, Madame Mafalda Duarte,

03:05that the ADB and the GCF are working together to launch a new regional program,

03:11which will include nine countries, including Tajikistan,

03:14with the total financing expected to 3.5 billion to finance adaptation measures in the region.

03:22Over half of Central Asia's drinking water comes from glaciers in Tajikistan.

03:27But of the country's 14,000 glaciers, 1,300 have already disappeared and the melting is accelerating.

03:36Most are located in remote high-altitude regions.

03:39At the conference, President Emom Ali Rahmon called for a major glacier study

03:44and a regional research lab focused on the Vanjieh glacier.

03:47At the same time, Tajikistan is putting its climate commitments into action,

03:52aiming to cut emissions by up to 50% by 2030, and signs of progress are already visible.

03:59You can also see on the streets of Dushanbe the number of electric cars.

04:06It's not that they are just crying out about the problem.

04:09They are also doing their part.

04:12And also the energy transition, more towards the electricity, renewables, is extremely important.

04:18And this is something that Tajikistan is well ahead of some of its neighbors.

04:23A global call to action was the key takeaway

04:26as the three-day glaciers preservation conference ended in Dushanbe.

04:31The event wrapped with closing remarks from the host country

04:34and the World Meteorological Organization,

04:37which stressed the urgent need to improve weather monitoring in mountain regions.

04:42The event resulted in two key outcomes –

04:46the Dushanbe Declaration and the Dushanbe Appeal,

04:48a global call for stronger cooperation to protect glaciers

04:52and the cryosphere for future generations.
