In northern Pakistan, human-wildlife conflict, habitat degradation and poaching of snow leopards and their wild prey are major threats to snow leopard populations. Lack of interventions to reduce conflicts further exacerbate threats. This project will safeguard snow leopards, their wild prey and habitat through genderaware integrated conservation and local livelihood improvement programs. This project will employ proven snow leopard conservation models including: livestock vaccination and insurance schemes, predator-proof corrals, women-led handicraft enterprises and youth environmental education.
