Beside of carrying out
many kinds of avtivities, we implement the project
for conserving NR. Currently, we are looking funds
to implement 2 projects for NR.
1.
Implemented project
| Project Name: |
DEVELOPING
NATURE CONSERVATION AND COMMUNITY-BASED TOURISM
IN GUN-GALUUT NATURE RESERVE |
| Duration: |
12 months |
| Supporter: |
GEF /Global Environment Facility/ |
| Organization: |
Gun-Galuut Community Association |
Project Description:
Goal of the project is taking Gun-Galuut as a locally
protected area for its unique biodiversity, delicate
ecosystem of Kherlen river and globally threatened
wildlife habitat, improving locals' participation
in the nature conservation activities, developing
community-based tourism basing on the Gun-Galuut NR
and supporting the locals' life standards by their
involvement of the nature conservation and tourism
activities. In the frame of the project activities,
we have marked the protected area borders and made
researches on the population of Argali herds etc.,
Therefore, we also have blocked some unnecessary roads
in the area, placed road signs and made information
blocks at necessary spots. Moreover, to keep the area
clean, we made protection fences at the core areas
such as Ayaga Oasis, Mt Baits etc. Also several serial
lessons on nature conservation, tourist services etc
have been taken place among the locals.
