Bio-diversity

The main objective of this project is to contribute to a better environment at the hilly areas close to a major health complex, which is suffering from extensive erosion and depletion of soil on the riverbank. Main activities include reforestation of the hilly slopes, improvement with infrastructure of riversides (surrounding fences), raising public awareness of local people, and producing some materials for dissemination of lessons learned, such as leaflets, TV documentary, etc. The activities foreseen in the project, which fall under several categories, will facilitate the soil protection, climate and landscape improvement and will stimulate a sustainable development of ecotourism in cooperation with the private and communal sector. A local commission will be created and several meetings with the locals for participating in decision-making concerning this specific project will be organized.
