TVET IT technologies support for the water resources, agro forest shelterbelts sustainability

Central Asia (CA) region is one of the regions of the world most affected by climate change and water shortages. The impacts include changes in precipitation patterns, more frequent temperature extremes and increased aridity, which will have a negative impact on agricultural production, threatening food, and environmental security. Awareness campaigns, lifelong blended learning, using all facilities, including technical and vocational education and training (TVET) Information technologies (IT) support are important to expand to upgrade, change the cultural habits and attitudes of water users. Complexities on the transboundary water sharing issues, overexploitation of water resources, poor flood-drought mitigation, disaster events, including earthquakes, require efficient cooperation in the proper TVET IT applications. Proper user-friendly lifelong blended learning for scientific information dissemination related to water issues will provide stronger support to increase awareness among water users and decision policy makers. TVET IT opportunities were elaborated. Kyrgyz-Kazakh water resources sustainability were analyzed as what will be reasonable to improve Dual TVET IT programs in cooperation Canadian-US colleges with Kyrgyz-Kazakh partners are targeted to develop. User-friendly TVET IT programs will be accessible for the rural regions, farmer’s needs. These efforts are novel in the CA region and will raise awareness among water users and decision makers.
