OSCE supports Aarhus Centres meeting in Khujand
On 22-23 October 2024, the OSCE Programme Office in Dushanbe (POiD) facilitated a two-day meeting in Khujand for five Aarhus Centres (ACs). This event aimed to share experiences and exchange information related to the United Nations Economic Commission for Europe (UNECE) Convention on Access to Information, Public Participation in Decision-making, and Access to Justice in Environmental Matters, commonly known as the Aarhus Convention.
The meeting highlighted the successful activities of the Khujand AC and provided a detailed overview of its operations, human resources, and project management tools. It also included the annual coordination meeting of the ACs, which focused on developing plans for 2025 per the Roadmap and Strategic Plan for Tajikistan's ACs.
This event aligned with POiD’s commitment to assist Tajikistan in promoting the principles of the Aarhus Convention, supporting sustainable environmental practices, and enhancing public participation in environmental decision-making processes.
