Dear Reader,

I am pleased to share with you the special edition of UN bulletin dedicated to issues of children and young genera-tion of Tajikistan. This publication highlights joint and co-ordinated efforts of UN system in Tajikistan in addressing sometimes insurmountable problems facing the new genera-tion of Tajik children. Timeliness of this special publication should be stressed as we are still facing the growing number of children being denied their basic rights and needs. We at-tempted to highlight those areas where our activities have

had some modest but important success such as access to education, safeguarding children’s health, improving school conditions and processes with supplementary programs, improving children’s livelihoods and UN’s joint and quick response to polio outbreak last year. However, we acknowledge that some of the burning issues related to Tajik street children who are forced to do the most difficult and hardest jobs, as well as domestic violence remained outside the content of this particular edition which we hope to cover in the next editions of UN bulletin.

It should be mentioned that the Government of Tajikistan is very committed and forthcoming in eradicating all obstacles in full realization of children’s rights and needs. The UN agencies will wholeheartedly continue to support and complement government efforts with one voice. Having spent considerable part of my entire career working on child programmes in many countries as a UNICEF official, which included all Central Asian countries, and especially child programmes in Tajikistan during 1992-2003, I will spare no effort as a UN Resident Coordi-nator in Tajikistan to achieve all the goals we set for ourselves in ensuring a better life for all children of Tajikistan.

Although fewer than 3,500 HIV infections have been officially reported in the Republic of Tajikistan, which has a population of almost 7.5 million, HIV preva-lence has been steadily increasing in the country for more than two decades.

One of the major factors facilitating the spread of the virus in Tajikistan considered being in the early stages of an epidemic, is poor knowledge of how HIV is transmitted and a reluctance to discuss it. These is-sues exist in the country in parallel with low level of knowledge on HIV, high level of risk behaviour among population and high level of stigma and discrimina-tion of people living with HIV/AIDS (PLWHA). Mi-gration patterns also have a role to play as large num-bers of men travel to Russia, which has a much higher HIV prevalence, for work. Eastern Europe and Cen-tral Asia is the only region where AIDS-related deaths have continued to rise, according to the latest global report published by UNAIDS.

Rural youth are increasingly at risk

With more than 30% of Tajikistan’s population un-der the age of 25 and more than 70% living in the countryside, rural youth are increasingly at risk. The dissemination of information through peer educa-tion has become an effective strategy to increase the knowledge of young people about their sexual and re-productive health and reproductive rights, as well as the various forms of HIV prevention.

Khairi Kamolova is a 20-year-old girl who works for the Youth Committee of Vakhsh District. She at-tended a National Y-PEER (Youth Peer Education Network) Training of Trainers supported by UNFPA in Tajikistan in 2008 and since that time has actively supported the network. She shares information on

prevention of HIV and other sexually transmitted infec-tions among rural youth. Started in Eastern Europe to deal with the dramatic increase in HIV prevalence among youth in that region, Y-PEER has become an in-ternational network that connects over 7000 young peer educators with informa-tion, training, support and a wide range of electronic resources.

During her work she has faced a variety of challenges, from misunderstandings by her fellow villagers, to lack of financial resources to work with youth. But she is sustained by her belief that saving even one life is an important contribution.

Helping families cope

Some stories have a happier ending. For instance, V.T. migrated to Russia to earn money to start his own business in Tajikistan upon return. While there, he became infected with HIV. When he found out about his status, he called home and asked his par-ents to send his wife, A.Z., and two children back to her family, to protect her.

She, in turn, contacted the information centre, and through Khairi was introduced to Parvina Nuridino-va, the Y-PEER Focal Point in Tajikistan who offered help and advice and liaised with V.T’s parents to im-prove the situation for everyone.

In Tajikstan, as in many other parts of the world, young people are leading the HIV ‘prevention revolution.’

UNFPA, the United Nations Population Fund, is an international development agency that promotes the right of every woman, man and child to enjoy a life of health and equal opportunity. UNFPA supports countries in using population data for policies and programmes to reduce poverty and to ensure that every pregnancy is wanted, every birth is safe, every young person is free of HIV/AIDS, and every girl and woman is treated with dignity and respect.

DUSHANBE, Tajikistan, March 2011 - Playing with her three-year-old son, Olim*, Marhabo tells me a story of desperation and hope. Their tiny, dimly-lit apartment on the outskirts of Dushanbe tells just how poor they are. The room is bare except for an old blackand-white TV. Marhabo and her son sit, eat and sleep on a pile of worn-out blankets. Plastic sheets serve as a replacement for some missing glass in the apartment’s windows.

“I was only 19 and newly married when Olim was born,” Marhabo tells. “After six months, my husband left for Russia in search of a job. Over the last two years, I have not heard from him.”

The husband’s departure was not the largest tragedy in the lives of Marhabo and Olim. Two years after her son’s birth, Marhabo learnt that they both have HIV.

“It was like a death sentence for me,” she recalls. “All I thought about HIV at that time was that it is a disease of drug addicts and commercial sex workers. I hated myself for infecting Olim with the disease.”

Putting her arms around Olim, Marhabo confides that after finding out her diagnosis, she was desperate and considered sending Olim to an orphanage. She knew she could hardly earn enough to buy bread and potatoes – the major diet for her and her son. Most of all, she was afraid of asking her husband’s family for help, fearing stigma and discrimination if they learnt about her and Olim’s disease.

Life-saving support

Desperation gave way to hope last month, when Marhabo learnt from a local NGO that starting in

2011, all HIV-positive children in Tajikistan will be receiving a monthly allowance in the amount of about 50 US dollars. For the country where the aver-age monthly salary of a public servant is less than this amount and more than 40 per cent of the population still live below the poverty line, this allowance is de-signed to help parents provide and support for their HIV positive children.

The adoption of a government resolution to provide social assistance to HIV positive children in Tajikistan is a result of continued advocacy and policy dialogue spearheaded by UNICEF. UNICEF also helped the country in costing the social protection scheme and developing the regulation.

“Family is the first line of protection and support for children,” says Hongwei Gao, UNICEF Representa-tive in Tajikistan. “Well targeted direct cash transfer in an effective way of supporting poor families and, in this case, families with HIV positive children. It pro-vides a safety net for the child.”

Social assistance to HIV positive children is just one element of UNICEF’s support for Tajikistan’s efforts in HIV/AIDS prevention and treatment. UNICEF also works to prevent and reduce sexually transmit-ted infections and HIV transmission, particularly to newborns, help the country’s healthcare providers diagnose HIV at Regaining hope early stages, and increase access of the most vulnerable young people and pregnant women to quality voluntary counseling, testing and treatment.

Regaining hope

Marhabo is one of possibly hundreds of parents who could soon start receiving the allowance. Ac-cording to the Republican HIV/AIDS Prevention Centre, there are currently 53 children registered as HIV positive, which makes them eligible to re-ceive the cash allowance. In practice, the number of HIV positive children in the country may be several times higher.

“I have hope again,” Marhabo says. “I feel I can raise Olim and help him become an educated and inde-pendent person.”

“This is all I need in my life,” she adds.

PANJAKENT, 7 May 2011 – Drawing an apple tree on a piece of paper, Behzodi Khurshed, 15, uses only brightest colours. This was different only six months ago when Behzod just began attending the out-of-school curriculum centre in Panjakent, a predomi-nantly rural town in northern Tajikistan.

“We saw that Behzod was a very bright child from his first day in the centre,” says Nigina Eshonkulova, who works as a psychologist in the centre. “He liked to draw and he certainly had the talent, but he was al-ways choosing the black colour for his drawings. This was most probably the impact of stress and discrimi-nation he endured being deaf and mute since child-hood. After several months of attending the centre, Behzod’s drawings were full of colour.”

In another room in the centre, a group of girls have a baking class. Sitorai Ulugbek, 13, helps her peers pre-pare the dough for pastries. She is visually impaired, but this has not prevented her from becoming one of the best students in the class.

“Sitora does not go to school because it is not designed to accommodate children with very poor sight,” says Mahbuba Kholova, baking instructor. “This class is probably the only place where she learns to be part of the group and do something with other children. From what I can see, Sitora is absolutely happy here.”

Behzod and Sitora are among more than 640 chil-dren attending the out-of school curriculum centre in Panjakent. Created in what used to be a “Dom Pionera” (Pioneers’ House) in the Soviet period, the centre now offers classes in drawing, sewing, knitting, computer literacy, baking, dancing, sing-ing and so on. Children attending the centre are in some way luckier than thousands of their peers across the district. With a population of about 240 thousand, Panjakent has only one such centre to of-fer classes to children.

“When two years ago we decided to rehabilitate the centre, UNICEF supported us by providing the equip-ment and materials for all the various classes,” says the director of the centre, Jurakul Ahrorov. “With only minimal investment, we have turned the aban-doned building into a place that many children now call their second home.”

The centre focuses primarily on the most under-privileged groups of children. It pioneers inclusive education in the district, with 18 children with dis-abilities enrolled in different classes in the centre. It also serves as a non-punitive correction facility, with 16 children who are in conflict with the law currently attending the centre. More than 30 children in the centre are orphans or have only one biological parent, and about 50 children are from very poor families.

When the centre began to operate in early 2010, it was difficult to convince parents to allow their children to attend it. Some feared that children with disabilities would face stigma and discrimination. Others had reservations about inclusive education.

“Only several months of the centre’s operation have convinced the sceptics that we need this centre,” says Ahrorov. ‘The centre already accommodates more students than it is designed to do. But almost every day, there are mothers and father approaching me and asking to find a place for their children in the centre.”

After their classes end, Behzod and Sitora walk home together. They laugh loudly, telling each other stories they have heard from their peers in the centre.

“I have never seen Sitora so happy,” says her mother, Zarina Khushvahtova, hiding tears in her eyes. “I can finally see that she is just like everyone else and that she can also enjoy life.”

PANJAKENT DISTRICT, Tajikistan, 11 No-vember 2010 – Savrinisso Yusupova, 34, smiles happily as she leaves hospital after her six-month-old son, Parviz, received two drops of the oral polio vaccine.

“I do not know much about polio,” she says. “Howev-er, I have recently learnt from a TV programme that the disease is dangerous and it can cripple my child for life. I am glad that my child is now protected from polio by the vaccine.”

A massive effort

This is already the sixth time this year that Savrinisso brought her child for vaccination in this remote Farob village in northern Tajikistan. Savrinisso’s son is one of almost three million Tajik children under 15 years of age who have been vaccinated in this last round of the nationwide polio immunisation campaign in 2010.

The campaign was launched this spring after Tajikistan witnessed its first reappearance of polio cases since the country was certified as polio-free in 2002. The campaign is coordinated by Tajikistan’s Ministry of Health, with support from UNICEF, WHO and other international partners. It is designed to protect Tajikistan’s children from the deadly dis-ease and make the country polio-free again.

With the support of partners from the Global Polio Eradication Initiative (GPEI), UNICEF procured and

delivered almost 17.3 million doses of oral polio vac-cine. UNICEF has also led a national communication and social mobilisation effort here to inform the gen-eral public about polio immunisation and mobilise communities to support the campaign.

Informing parents

“I was reminded many times about the vaccina-tion dates,” says Savrinisso. “I first learnt about the need to vaccinate my child against polio from TV. The village doctor then came and told me more about vaccination. Finally, my husband also brought the information about vaccination from the local mosque.”

The effort to immunise children against polio was matched by a nationwide campaign aiming at in-forming parents and caregivers about the need to vaccinate their children. In the run-up to all rounds of vaccination, national and regional TV and radio stations across the country aired repeatedly the announcements about the campaign. Millions of leaflets and hundreds of thousands of posters and banners in Tajik, Uzbek, Russian and Dari were produced and distributed through health centres, schools, kindergartens, markets and mosques across the country.

The social mobilisation campaign focused specifically on remote, isolated and under-served populations, including Central Asian Roma communities and Af-ghan refugee enclaves.

TaJik village yearNS To See firST girl iN UNiverSiTy

The poor village of Kisht, on the Tajikistan-Afghani-stan border, has never managed to send a girl to uni-versity. So community leaders are delighted about WFP programme which should mean girls stay at school longer. Now, they hope, maybe one will take the next step.

In the village of Kisht, a stone’s throw from the Panj River which marks the border with Afghanistan, school principal Murodali Odinaev is only too aware of the very limited opportunities for young people.

Slow progress

“Last year, eight girls graduated from Grade 11. Out of the eight, seven are married. Of the 11 boys who graduated, four went to university and three went to technical college,” Odinaev told a group of visitors from WFP.

“But even those eight girls are an advance over previ-ous years,” he added. “Before, almost all the girls left after Grade 9, when their parents could legally take them out of school and keep them at home.”

Odinaev’s school receives WFP food for the children in Grades 1 to 4 – when enrolment and attendance are near perfect, he notes, thanks in large part to the WFP commodities which are cooked into a hearty split pea soup accompanied by freshly baked bread.

Both Odinaev and the village head, Kurbon Sharipov, applaud WFP’s school feeding plan for Tajikistan,

under which the organization will give 370,000 chil-dren a daily coked. The food motivates the parents to sed their children to school where they can ac-quire a larger arsenal of learning for their entry into the adult world.

First girl to university

“In the history of this village, none of the girls has gone to university,” Sharipov exclaimed. “Someone must be the pioneer!”

The closest any woman has got to post-secondary school is Khatichamo Saidalieva, who took a basic computer course after her marriage and became the school’s computer teacher. But with electricity rationing during the day, she is unable to turn the computer on.

Parvina Fathulloeva, a member of the Kisht Parent-Teacher Association, tried several times to go to university. She succeeded in graduating from Grade 11 and applied several times to medical school, but with her parents refusing to give her financial back-ing, she failed to maneuver her way in. With two daughters in Grades 3 and 5, she is keeping her eye now on their future.

“My daughters like school very much and eat every daily nicely cooked soup in schools,” said Parvina. “I often ask the teachers about them, are they doing well, are they behaving? Because it is my dream that they go on to university.”

The Rasht Valley is an agricultural region consist-ing with the main income-generation activities being potato-growing, vegetable gardening, bee-keeping, and livestock breeding. The region is characterized by natural disasters and environmental erosion. UNICEF in 2009 started a campaign to raise aware-ness about disaster risk mitigation (DRM) in 500 sec-ondary schools across the country, out of which 150 are in the Rasht Valley. The course focuses on foresta-

tion as an effective defense against mudflows, land-slides and avalanches. WFP distributed 10,000 fruit tree seedlings and 15,000 poplar seedlings among 50 schools. Some 10,000 students have been “assigned” one tree apiece and are responsible for making it grow. The actual Food for Work participants are 250 school support staff. The fruit will be consumed by the students or sold so that the profits can be invested in the schools.

The Republic of Tajikistan, which had been polio-free since 1996, experienced a massive polio outbreak in 2010 following an importation of poliovirus from northern India in 2010. In total, 458 laboratory con-firmed polio cases were reported in 2010 from 35 out of 61 administrative territories of Tajikistan. This has been the first outbreak in the EURO region since it was certified polio free in 2002, and also the biggest outbreak in the world since 2005.

The Government of Tajikistan responded quickly to the outbreak and alerted WHO and neighboring countries about the cases. Consultants and special investigation teams were on ground within few days after the news of the outbreak.

In response, the Ministry of Health (MoH) with sup-port from the WHO, UNICEF, USAID and other partners, had implemented six rounds of National Immunization Days (NIDs) and one round of SNIDs in 2010. As result of this well coordinated response the outbreak was stopped within six months. The last laboratory confirmed polio case was in July 4th 2010.

However, despite the achievements made in stop-ping the outbreak, the country has to remain vigilant as long as there is polio circulation in the neighboring countries near and far. Also it is essential for the coun-try to regain its polio free status by the international certification committee. For this purpose, the country should maintain a high level of routine immunization, conduct high quality immunization campaigns against polio and maintain a very sensitive surveillance.

In 2011, as part of the synchronized campaigns con-ducted in the Central Asian countries, Tajikistan had successfully conducted the first round NIDs in 18-22 April. All efforts were made to reach every child in the target group in the country during the campaign. A

detailed micro-planning workshop was conducted for the EPI Managers at National level and Oblasts prior to the campaign. Trainings were conducted for the health workers before the first round. Social mobiliza-tion activities like TV, radio, poster/banner, press con-ference/press release, vehicle announcements, SMS by mobile companies and community meetings were held before the commencement of the campaign. Above all, the health workers have visited every household before the campaign dates in their respective catchment areas to ensure high coverage. Several coordination meet-ings were held between different departments of MoH. Vaccine and other logistics were distributed to all the facilities on time. As a result, the campaign was well organized. Different strategies were used to reach the targets which include fixed posts at facilities, mobile teams according to need, teams to reach kinder gar-dens and in some remote areas teams went on don-keys. Transit teams were also deployed to target travel-ling children during campaign days.

Government involvement in supervision and moni-toring found remarkably high. In addition, WHO, UNICEF and USAID along with the partner agencies Save the Children USA, Mercy Corps, Red Crescent and AKHS jointly conducted in-process and end-process campaign monitoring. The analysis of the post campaign monitoring reveals that the overall coverage was 98%. All the Oblasts achieved more than 95% OPV coverage. Awareness about the campaign also found significantly high in all Oblasts except Dushanbe. The main reason for children missed were due to absence during the house visit by the health workers.

“The synchronized work of the Ministry of Health with WHO, UNICEF and all partners working on the polio eradication has played a key role in achieving good results in 2011, which proved that the joint ef-forts can bring to success and good results” – noted Dr Rakhmatullaev Sh.R (Head of Family Planning and Child department of the Ministry of health) dur-ing one of the coordination meetings held in the Min-istry of Health.

The joint efforts, the preparation of the polio immu-nisation rounds, the series of micro-planning work-shops, trainings for the health care specialists and the coordinated work of all sectors of society are key ele-ments in achieving results and remaining polio free. With no cure for polio, immunization with oral polio vaccine is the only protection against polio.

Childbirth is mostly a positive experience, but in many parts of the world, unfortunately, mothers and babies still die due to preventable factors. Lack of access to essential services contributes to these deaths, as does the lack of providers’ capacity to identify and manage complications and provide rel-evant support to women and their newborn babies. Moreover, such factors, as education, income, place of residency within the country, poverty, gender in-equalities have also influence on the negative out-comes of childbirths.

Since 2001 the WHO Making Pregnancy Safer Pro-gramme has been implementing in Tajikistan as per Ministry of Health of Tajikistan request. The Pro-gramme is focusing on capacity building, implemen-tation of evidence-based norms and interventions, monitoring and evaluation, building partnerships, advocacy and resource mobilization. The imple-menting activities address different factors, which are vital for the access to skilled medical care before, during and after pregnancy and childbirth. It targets not only health systems and medical staff, but also communities and families.

Implementation of the WHO Making Pregnan-cy Safer Programme has been contributing to a progress seen in reduction of maternal mortality in Tajikistan. Thus, according to WHO/UNICEF/UNFPA/WB estimates for the period from 1990 to 2008 this indicator has decreased by 44%. So, an-nual maternal mortality in Tajikistan declined by 3,3% and in 2008 this indicator was 64 per 100000 live births. In general infant mortality rate is also declining in Tajikistan. Moreover, results of a latest assessment showed that quality of care for mothers and newborns has been significantly improved in recent years. Examples of good care were observed, showing that ensuring quality of medical care for women and children is possible in spite of deficien-cies in health systems, hospital infrastructure and availability of equipment and supplies.

Health of mothers and their children is a fundamen-tal asset to society and a pillar of health systems per-formance and the WHO in partnership with national and international partners will continue support of activities in order to ensure the highest possible lev-el of health for mother and newborns in Tajikistan.

rehaBiliTaTioN BecomeS a focUS of The maiN SUcceSS iN TaJikiSTaNThe core activity of rehabilitation illustrates the saying that the unity all of us can have a great success!

An outbreak of poliomyelitis due to wild poliovirus type 1 (wP1) circulating in Uttar Pradesh, India in mid-2009, occurred in Tajikistan beginning in early 2010, eight years after the European Region has been certified as free of poliomyelitis. According to the gov-ernment statistics 712 Acute Flaccid Paralysis cases were notified and most of them are at recovery phase, but some have already started showing signs of resid-ual paralysis. All persons affected could benefit from rehabilitation intervention such as; postural care, therapy and splints or orthosis.

In the beginning of Polio outbreak by request from the Ministry of Health the WHO Country office hired a consultant on rehabilitation, Dr Chapal Khasnabis to carry out a Rapid Assessment Survey and map out a plan of action for building rehabilitation capac-ity, together with resources requirements for people affected by polio in Dushanbe and adjoining areas of Tajikistan. Meantime during the mission of Dr Chapal Khasnabis, the Ministry of Health of Repub-lic of Tajikistan addressed the WHO Country office with request to train the doctors in management during the recovery phase. The mission consisted from two aspects: the rapid assessment including mapping and capacity assessment of existing facili-

ties and short training for doctors on polio manage-ment with a focus on the recovery phase.

During the visit of Dr Chapal a half-day workshop was conducted to train the doctors on management of people with polio during recovery phase especially on prevention of the deformities in polio. The doctors noticed how the training was interesting and produc-tive with the hands-on practice.

“I really liked the right way of management of children with polio during the recovery phase, and in addition I have got a lot of skills, experience and knowledge out of this training!”- says Dr Khakimov Izatullo, the doctor from Gissar District Hospital.

In addition the visits were made by Dr Chapal to some of the families in the rural parts of districts and it was provided a short training for parents how to decrease harm on their child.

“I liked the way of treating me and my child, especially in the moment, when I needed such kind of support. I think it is really good idea to conduct such teaching ways for the families and their children”- mentions Gul-ruhsor, the woman living in the rural part of Rudaki district.

Moreover besides the training there was stakehold-ers meeting for all partners and disabled societies in the country. Organizations like Psychological Medical and Physical Conditions (PMPC), Handi-cap International, Association for Aid and Relief (AAR) – Japan, Disabled People’s Organization of Tajikistan, NOIT and NOC took part in it. The meet-ing was successful due to the organizations, such as Operation Mercy and Handicap International were very interested in extending these practices in the country and conduct the training on a regular basis, which is currently being organized in the Republic of Tajikistan for the medical personnel and parents using own financial support.
