Objectives of the Second Regional Seminar on the Decision Support Process (RDS) in the Amu Darya River Basin:

• Present the updated concept and approach to the RDS process based on feedback received during the first regional seminar.
• Demonstrate preliminary results of modeling water, energy, food, and ecosystem security in the Amu Darya River Basin.
• Present preliminary results of the case study analysis on the Tuyamuyun Reservoir.
• Discuss development scenarios that go beyond the baseline scenario.
• Demonstrate the difference between a sectoral planning approach (using only the WEAP water model) and an integrated intersectoral planning approach (using the WEAP-LEAP-Macro modeling suite).
• Define further development of the WEAP-LEAP-Macro models with an emphasis on potential shared benefits for the Amu Darya River Basin.

Expected outcomes: agreement on scenarios for the further development of the integrated model.
