PROJECT OBJECTIVES
The overall goal of the project is to restore, sustain, and enhance,
the productive and protective functions of the trans-boundary ecosystems of the
High Pamir and Pamir-Alai Mountains, of Tajikistan and Kyrgyzstan, so as to improve
the social and economic well-being of the rural communities and households utilizing
the region's ecosystem resources to meet their livelihood needs, while preserving
its unique landscape and globally important biodiversity.
The project has two main objectives, which are defined as follows:
Development Objective: To address the link between poverty, vulnerability
and land degradation through the promotion of sustainable land management practices
that contribute to improving the livelihoods and economic well-being of the inhabitants
of the High Pamir and Pamir-Alai Mountains.
Environmental Objective: To mitigate the causes and negative
impacts of land degradation on the structure and functional integrity of the ecosystems
of the High Pamir and Pamir-Alai Mountains through mainstreaming sustainable land
management tools and practices from household, community, local government, national
and regional levels.
In view of the project goal and objectives, project activities are designed to lead to the realization of the following expected outcomes:
Outcome 1: Enhanced regional cooperation between Tajikistan and Kyrgyzstan creating the enabling regional strategic planning, and national legislative, policy, institutional, technical, and economic incentive, environment, for the sustainable management of the High Pamir and Pamir-Alai mountain ecosystems.
Outcome 2: Improved capacity of Tajikistan's and Kyrgyzstan's public and private sector agency research and advisory support service providers to promote sustainable land management within the High Pamir and Pamir-Alai Mountains.
Outcome 3: Reduction in rural poverty and economic vulnerability through restoration and enhancement of the productive and protective functions (ecological goods and services) of the High Pamir and Pamir-Alai mountain ecosystems.
Outcome 4: Generic guidelines developed for up-scaling and replication of the lessons learnt, from the project's experience with sustainable land management, within comparable trans-boundary mountain regions within Asia and elsewhere.
