Green Corridor Planner Guidelines Summary: Almaty Agglomeration, Kazakhstan

This document outlines guidelines for planning and implementing green corridors in the Almaty Agglomeration, Kazakhstan, as part of a broader Green Network vision. It aims to address environmental challenges such as climate change, desertification, and urbanization by promoting sustainable green infrastructure.

Key aspects include:

• Introduction: Almaty faces issues like rising temperatures, floods, and water scarcity due to its arid climate and rapid urban growth.
• Green Network Principles: The network is designed to preserve existing greenery, ensure connectivity, provide multifunctionality (e.g., ecological, recreational), and integrate with urban planning.
• Approaches and Tools: Five main approaches are detailed:
  1. Increased Tree Canopy Cover: Focuses on urban and linear tree planting to improve air quality and microclimates, with tools like single tree planting, riparian buffers, and rooftop rainwater harvesting.
  2. Ecological Restoration and Enhancement: Involves restoring habitats, rivers, and floodplains to boost biodiversity.
  3. Green Linkages: Creates corridors and connections between green areas to enhance habitat and recreational access.
  4. Recreation Development: Develops safe, continuous paths for cycling, walking, and rest areas to support tourism and health.
  5. Harvesting Additional Water Resources: Implements rainwater collection and storage for irrigation to combat water scarcity.
• Benefits: Reduces disaster risks, improves air quality, supports biodiversity, enhances public health, and promotes sustainable growth.
• Implementation: Requires analytical assessments, stakeholder involvement, and case studies from global examples for reference.

The guidelines are supported by the World Bank's Resilient Landscapes program and are intended for planners, policymakers, and communities to guide long-term environmental resilience.
