BEFORE THE LAKE IS GONE
THIS CATASTROPHE CANNOT BE OVERLOOKED.
The consequences are not limited to the people of the Aral region:
-
Increased salt deposits from the Aral have been measured across the world.
-
The water bodies of the Aral Region supply water to 5 different countries
-
Uzbekistan is becoming an increasingly significant player in global economics.
Our organization builds direct connections with local initiatives in the Aral Region, to assure that each donation makes a concrete impact. We are currently centering our work in the Khorezm and Karakalpakstan, the two most hard-hit regions of Central Asia. They are near the dried seabed, covered with salt and industrial chemicals which blow into towns, causing an array of illnesses.
