We do this through producing regional information materials; conducting workshops, conferences, roundtables; research and surveys; establishing information analytics; consultation, and coordination; establishing libraries, and computer and educational centers; and assembling databases of economic, social, ecological, cultural conditions in the region. We actively disseminate ecological knowledge about the preservation and effective use of local natural resources, as well as ecotourism development and biodiversity protection in the Pamirs.
