DAR30018: Reviving Trans-Himalayan Rangelands: A community-led vision for people and nature (360G-cabinetoffice-G2-GA-2024101314467-23-24)

This project addresses degradation of high-altitude rangelands, and associated biodiversity and livelihood impacts, by facilitating a community-led vision and rangelands co-management model in the Indian Trans-Himalayas. Pastoralist communities and key stakeholders will be convened through rangelands councils for effective rangelands co-management. Interventions to improve human-wildlife coexistence, and augment women's income from rangelands-friendly products, will contribute to livelihoods security. This project aims to ultimately restore the Changpas and Brokpas as stewards of rangelands for the benefit of people and nature.
