The Central Asian Research and Education Network (CAREN) is an EC-funded project that established a high-capacity research and education network connecting institutions across Central Asia. CAREN interconnects over 500 universities and research institutes in Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan and Kazakhstan, providing access to global research collaborations through its connection to GÉANT. Some key applications include environmental monitoring, e-learning, telemedicine, and disaster risk management. CAREN availability has consistently been over 98% since 2010. The network helps harness renewable energy research in Turkmenistan and monitors climate change in Kyrgyzstan's glaciers through collaboration with European partners.

Европейская модель NREN
Организационная модель одной NREN в одной стране с координацией
и сотрудничеством на континентальном уровне стала ключом к успеху.
На международном уровне, связь между Европейскими NREN
обеспечивается сетью GEANT, управляемый ДАНТЕ от имени NREN.
Большинство европейских NREN получают финансовую поддержку из
национального правительства. Аналогично, сеть GEANT,
объединяющая европейские NREN на международном уровне,
получают финансовую поддержку из Европейской Комиссии.
Национальные Исследовательские и Образовательные Сети (NREN),
являются активом для экономического роста и процветания. Это –
источник инноваций, обеспечивающий быстрое и широкое
распространение технологий для общества и промышленности.
Большинство европейских NREN в некоторой степени следуют
гибридной модели финансирования. Пользователи вносят
справедливый вклад в стоимость производства услуг, в то время как
правительство обеспечивает более долгосрочное финансирование
инноваций и улучшений.

CAREN: From ancient trade route to
high-speed data network
For many centuries the Silk Road was the long-distance route for trade
and communication across Central Asia, linking Europe and Asia.
Today, the Central Asia Research and Education Network (CAREN) is
upgrading this route to a 21st-century high-speed Internet highway for
research centers and educational institutions throughout the region. Co-
founded by the EC and launched in 2010, CAREN interconnects over
500 universities and research institutes in Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan,
Turkmenistan and Kazakhstan, with Uzbekistan also a candidate
country. Thanks to its interconnection with GÉANT, CAREN allows
seamless collaboration between Central Asia and Europe, providing the
region with a gateway to global research collaboration.

ACROSS - Advanced Remote Sensing -
Ground Truth Demo and Test Facilities
It is part of a larger initiative:
Global Earth Monitoring and Validation System (GEMINIS) led by GFZ
and shall become part of the new national infrastructure roadmap plan of
the German Federal Ministry of Education and Research basis of a future
global observation initiative
Among the many aims of ACROSS:
Support the development of forecasting and early warning systems in
order to minimise the impacts of extreme events (extreme weather
events like floods and droughts, freshwater quality, desertification,
earthquakes, landslides, tsunamis, etc.).
22. The Central Asian Research

Seismic Early Warning / Rapid Response
In the framework of ACROSS, GFZ will develop monitoring system
for (regional) Seismic Early Warning/Rapid Response (starting
from 2014). It is planned to install about 50 stations and two
vertical arrays.
To fulfill the ACROSS requirements:
-Develop of a monitoring system that can be generalized and exported
to other “hazards”
-Define (or implement) standards for data acquisition/archive/exchange
ACROSS and GEMIS will benefit from as well as contribute to the
European research infrastructure initiative European Plate Observing
System (EPOS).
