OSCE Centre in Bishkek plans to bring its co-financing and create eco-demonstration area on the base of Biostation in Cholpon Ata city.
Capacity - Building Component
Project allowed to raise capacity of the NGOs and pond-keepers of Issyk-Kul province about new approached in fish breeding sector. Scienticis consultations were provided by experts from National Academy of sciences.
Inovative Financial Mechanisms
Project meterials (poster about fish diversity of the Issyk-Kul lake) were issued both in Russian and Kyrgyz languages. Short participatory video was developed.
