As a rare and endangered species, Asiatic Poplar (Populus diversifolia) is currently preserved within small protected areas, groves and wooded areas. The Asian poplar, a regionally endemic species, grows only in the northern part of Balkhash Lake. ( ... )
eserved poplar groves are subjected to destruction primarily by unattended cabins, cattle grazing, wood wreckers, and population growth. At present, the poplar groves are not specifically under the control of any nature protection bodies, so they have no official protective status, and conservation measures have not been undertaken for a long time. As a result, the poplar groves are being

The East Kazakhstan area, partially the Pavlodar area, is the only place in Kazakhstan, where unique Pine forests have remained since the Ice Age. Although these Pine forests are specified as ?nature protection areas?, they are under continuous ( ... )
age from arson, fires and increasing harvesting. In many respects the situation is complicated by the low level of forest protection and the relative poverty of the local population, due to a lack of sustainable sources of income. According to expert forecasts, in the next 25 years these threats could significantly diminish the Pine forests and could threaten the Pine species altogether.

A brief review of GEF/SGP activity was prepared in February 2000, which reflected the results of the First Operational Phase projects and GEF/SGP activity for 1997-2000. The review included a comparative analysis of GEF/SGP strategic objectives in ( ... )
nd 1999, and an evaluation of the project characteristics from the First and Second Operational phases. Important components of each project, such as monitoring, evaluation, communications & outreach activities were analysed. From this analysis, two main GEF/SGP strategic directions were identified:

As a result of the Aral Sea environmental crisis, the Syr-Darya River delta lakes are the only place where high concentrations of regional fauna can still be found, like the migratory birds that fly through the south of Kazakhstan. However, the ( ... )
d water-flow of the Syr Darya River is decreasing the total area of most lakes, and other problems like poaching, destruction of vegetation, irrational land and water resource use, irrational agriculture, land degradation and desertification negatively influence the fragile wetland ecosystem. As a result, there is a very serious threat to the biodiversity of these lakes.
