As Khovar National Information Agency informs with reference to the university, the issues of changing condition of Tajikistan's glaciers, natural and anthropogenic factors affecting their melting process, the importance of glaciers in ensuring water and environmental security, as well as the need to implement modern methods of monitoring and scientific research were discussed in the session.

Special attention was paid to the strategic role of Tajikistan's glaciers in the formation of water resources in the Central Asian region, the impact of global warming on the hydrological system, and the possible consequences of the reduction of the area and volume of glaciers for the economy, including energy, agriculture and tourism.

The importance of the international initiatives of the Republic of Tajikistan in the direction of protecting glaciers, development of international scientific cooperation and strengthening of cryosphere research as one of the priority areas of ensuring sustainable development was emphasized in the session.
