Osh State University Expert Delivers Lecture on Climate Change Impact in Kyrgyzstan
Abdizhapar Akkulov, Director of the Center for the Protection of Mountain Ecosystems and Green Innovation Consulting, delivered an online lecture titled “Ecosystems of Kyrgyzstan in the Current Climate Change Conditions.”
The session, attended by foreign researchers associated with the Aga Khan Foundation, as well as young professionals, undergraduate and graduate students, and environmental activists, focused on the unique geological hazards in Kyrgyzstan—issues common to mountainous regions.
Akkulov highlighted the active development of exogenous geological processes impacting mountainous areas and settlements, noting Kyrgyzstan’s diverse terrain and complex geological structure. Citing international data, he pointed out that about 80% of landslides are caused by human activity.
Over the last decade, geological hazards have intensified, posing serious risks to the population and causing substantial economic and environmental damage. In Kyrgyzstan alone, nearly 5,000 landslides have been recorded in recent years, with the majority occurring in the southern part of the country. Approximately 600 settlements are located in high-risk landslide zones.
Akkulov also discussed the Kurbu-Tash Forest project, an initiative by Osh State University aimed at preventing landslides and rehabilitating areas affected by natural disasters. As part of this project, tree seedlings were planted in the village of Kurbu-Tash in Uzgen district to establish a new forested area.
