  Tuva Sets Sights On Sustainable Development
Tuva (the "Tannu," which means "mountainous taiga," was dropped in 1926), is a republic of the Russian Federation in south-central Siberia, with a population of 310,000 in a territory about the size of the state of Washington.
Tuva is currently struggling to distance itself a bit from Moscow's control and influence and to establish a unique and recognizable identity.
As Tuva's leaders look to the future, they will need to figure out not only how to deal with these problems, but also how to balance the inherent tension between economic development based on exploitation of natural resources and the ecological ethic that is an integral part of the religious traditions they are reviving.
