This article examines the issue of environmental security in Central Asia in the context of escalating climate, resource, and institutional challenges of the 21st century. The author analyzes the main approaches to environmental security governance—namely, the institutional, network-based, technocratic, and human-oriented models—and explores their specific implementation in the countries of the region: Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, and Turkmenistan. Special attention is given to political and administrative models, institutional reforms, transboundary dimensions, and international cooperation. The article concludes that there is a need to shift from fragmented national strategies to a coordinated regional policy based on the principles of sustainable development, transparency, and strategic coordination. The research relies on legal frameworks, strategic documents, international agreements, and expert literature, offering a comprehensive political science analysis of current trends and prospects in the field of environmental security in Central Asia.
