KYRGYZSTAN BIBLIOGRAPHIC SEARCH RESULTS

Country Introduction Kyrgyzstan is a landlocked country located in Central Asia. It borders Kazakhstan to the north, Uzbekistan to the west, Tajikistan to the southwest, and China to the east. Made up of seven regions, the City of Bishkek, Batken, Chuy, Jalal-Abad, Naryn, Osh, Talas, Issyk-Kul, and the City of Osh, these regions are then divided into districts. Kyrgyzstan is the furthest country from the ocean and all of its rivers drain into a closed system that does not flow into the sea. Similar to its neighbor Tajikistan, the country is very mountainous and the Tian Shah Mountain range slices through the country from the east to the west and its largest river, the Nayn, meanders along its base. The mountainous terrain causes many natural disasters including avalanches, landslides, rockslides, and flooding that all affect the isolated villages in the valleys below. Perhaps just as important of an issue as these disasters, is the difficulty of communicating to these isolated rural villages and bringing them supplies in case of a disaster emergency. Kyrgyzstan gained its independence from the Soviet Union in 1991, but since then has undergone much civil unrest, mostly due to ethnic clashes between the Uzbeks and Kyrgyz. While much of the Kyrgyz population lives in the more developed north, the Uzbeks occupy the more impoverished south. The village planning literature reiterated this urban/rural and north/south divide as well as the needs for improved healthcare, infrastructure, housing, and “disaster resilient communities”. The degree to which tourism and democracy affects these villages is also a common theme in the literature.

Problem Statement This research provides the results of a systematic library and database search on the topic of Kyrgyzstan to contribute to the

formation of the DRMI-AKPIA Knowledge Bank on Disaster Risk Reduction in Village Planning.

I. Research Methodologies

The first Methodology described below applies only to the Published Scientific Literature. The findings from this method have been summarized in Section II, recorded by tables in Section VI, and exported as two separate bibliographies: one for Hazards (Section V) and one for Village Planning (Section VI). While the Village Planning Bibliography is not further categorized, the Hazards bibliography is broken down further into 4 sections: Physical Sciences, Mitigation, Impact and Reporting, and Recovery and Reconstruction The bibliographic search for Kyrgyzstan has been broken down into a set of planning terms (Hazard, Disaster, Earthquake, Flood*, Avalanche, Landslide, GLOF, and complex emergencies) and a set of relocation terms (Preparedness, Mitigation, Evacuation, Retrofit, Safe Havens, Temporary Shelter, Recovery, Reconstruction, Village Planning, Village, Settlement, Habitat, Relocation, Housing and Rural

Development). For each planning + relocation term, the number of total hits, applicable hits + their corresponding RefWorks ID number(s), and associated notes have been recorded. This process is repeated for each of the following databases: Archnet, Avery Index, Compendex, Medline, Proquest – Dissertations, Water Resources Abstracts, Web of Science, and Worldcat. The second Methodology applies only to the Gray Literature. The findings from this method have been summarized in section III and its contents are organized into four categories: GO, IGO, INGO, NGO. Within each of these category folders are the organizations and agencies that have engaged in programs, funding, and initiatives in Kyrgyzstan and then within their subfolders is the applicable literature. The summaries in section III speak generally to the contents of this literature and to the overarching goals of the organization. Finally, this document catalogues this literature in section VII, “Grey Literature Bibliography”.

II. Published Scientific Literature Summary The results from the databases (as noted in Section I) have been divided into 5 main sections. The first 4 of these sections pertain to Disaster Risk Management (Physical Sciences, Mitigation, Impact + Reporting and Recovery + Reconstruction) and the last section relates to Village Planning. The most abundant information in the Hazards section related to that of the Physical Sciences and included issues such as rockslides, rockslide dams, the distribution of landslides, climate change and glacier retreat, earthquakes triggering landslides, unstable slopes, flash floods, and uranium contamination. Most of these topics relate very closely to one another and most commonly, the issues involve landslides. In terms of the Mitigation section, predominant issues comprised of the monitoring of radionuclides and metals, fair water allocation, need for improved health facilities and education in rural areas, irrigation

reform, and the “building of disaster resilient communities.” In general, there was far less literature in the Mitigation section and its topics maintained more autonomy form one another than in the Physical Sciences section in which there existed much overlap. The Impact and Reporting Section addressed forced migration, seismic hazard analysis, environmental contamination assessments, household water access, and analyzed particularly ecologically vulnerable communities. Though seismic hazard analysis appeared frequently in the literature, again there existed little duplication or relationships among the topics covered. The last section included in the Hazards analysis was that of Recovery and Reconstruction and contained the least amount of information. Instead of describing or reflecting upon Recovery and Reconstruction as it has been implemented in the past, most of the literature provided recommendations and proposals for ways of strengthening emergency relief in the future. Finally, the Village Planning literature dealt primarily with the weak relationships between the urban and rural and the need to create stronger infrastructure to link the two across the mountains. Other topics included emergency relief, energy and land use in these communities, the need for more housing, health in remote areas, “building disaster resilient communities”, and how tourism and democracy have affected these villages. In general, there existed very few direct linkages between the Hazards and Village Planning sections and the connections that did exist revolved around primarily rural settlements in landslide-prone zones. The total number of hits for the published scientific (with search limits as defined by the tables included in this document) was 696.

III. Gray Literature Summary The gray literature concerning natural disasters and village planning maintains a diverse set of issues ranging from that of natural

disasters, water quality, and road infrastructure construction to social and political issues such as civic unrest in a democratic state, equal opportunities in education, and economic cooperation among the central Asian states. Perhaps the issue addressed the most in the literature, however, was that of climate change and how its impact will exacerbate existing social, economic, and political problems in the region.
