| Реферат: | eng: IGCP-Project #592 (2012-2015) 'Continental construction in Central Asia', funded by UNESCOIUGS, was launched in April 2012. The Project focuses on tectonic and magmatic aspects of formation of continental crust in the Central Asian Orogenic Belt and their comparison with actualistic examples from the western Pacific. This report summarizes related scientific results and meetings. In total, in 2012 the Project organized, and/or participated in the organization of, six international conferences and workshops, three of which were accompanied by training schools for young scientists and special training courses. At the present time, more than 250 scientists from 27 countries expressed their interest to collaborate in the frame of our Project, of which more than one third are women and young scientists. Participants come from Australia, Bangladesh, Belgium, Canada, China, Czech Republic, Fiji, Finland, France, Germany, India, Indonesia, Iran, Japan, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Mongolia, New Zealand, Poland, Philippines, Republic of Korea, Russia, Tajikistan, Turkey, United Kingdom, USA, and Uzbekistan.
