Regenerating soil helps a son revive his father’s legacy
“Back in the day I could almost jump out of my house and fall straight into the greenest sea. Now, I can only dream about it, ” says Zhandos Moldagulov sadly.
“For 25 years now, it has been impossible to see the waters of the Aral Sea from the house where I grew up. We have lost our homes, jobs, land and our neighbours,”
The #AralSea was once the world’s 4th largest lake, but it has shrunk beyond recognition. See how we're working to combat the effects of desertification, restore productivity to the land and strengthen the region’s #livelihoods.
