A Community Keeps the Peace

Photo showing the Turkishtak community initiative group making plans to ensure the safety of their village.Since 2001, USAID has been working to mitigate tensions on Kyrgyzstan’s border with Uzbekistan by mobilizing communities in vulnerable cross-border areas. In the village of Turkishtak, Kyrgyzstan, the effort to keep order was assisted by the community initiative group (CIG), a body of active community leaders formed with USAID training and support. Shortly after violence erupted in Andijan, Uzbekistan, in May 2005, a rural council phoned the CIG in neighboring Turkishtak, which immediately initiated measures to secure its own community. The group formed a neighborhood patrol, went door-to-door to inform residents of the events in Andijan and kept watch for possible refugees fleeing the area. They even organized a makeshift refugee camp in a vacant building in the event that the situation worsened. One CIG member and two of his neighbors supplied mattresses, materials, and clothing, and selected two families to prepare food if refugees arrived. Fortunately, neither violence nor refugees descended on Turkishtak. Nevertheless, those CIG members who rose to the occasion and took responsibility for the safety of their community further solidified their role as leaders and decision makers. The communication structure, organized and practiced by the CIG with USAID assistance, prevented fear from turning into chaos--a success that will continue to enhance the lives and well-being of the residents of Turkishtak and preserve their relationship with neighboring Uzbekistan communities.
