Cost-effective pasture management practices in Kyrgyzstan are helping to reduce negative impacts of livestock grazing on land and improve rural livelihoods.
The project is also working on attracting farmers to distant pastures by installing green technologies, including six mini hydropower stations and 18 solar energy stations. This equipment helps to improve the livelihoods of families and shepherds working in distant pastures.

A Toronto-based invention and innovation, the world's first water-based instrument...
The hydraulophone is like a flute except that it has 45 finger holes instead of the usual 7 or 8 holes, and also it uses water instead of air. The row of holes closest to you, when you face the instrument, are natural tones, and the row of holes further away (in groups of 2, 3, 2, 3, ...) are semitones. You get microtones (between semitones) by partially covering the holes.
