Elm Grove is an Eco Park Endeavor, an intriguing project aimed at green area rehabilitation. Elm Grove was conserved as a green space in Bishkek due to its strong influence on the local weather and environment. However, after Kyrgyzstan got independence, residents took over more than 60% of the national park for various purposes. This initiative is being led by AUCA to allow the renovation of this crucial park. As a result, they were able to repair more than 40 hectares of green area.
