Summary
We will increase the capability of the association of vicuña managers to replicate best practices for vicuña and habitat management including censusing, shearing, and marketing tools, as well as habitat (e.g., peatland) monitoring approaches. These best practices have been developed through partnerships that will be leveraged for impact at the national scale to build the institutional framework to support local livelihoods and conserve pecies associated with highland peatlands and pastures, such as Andean flamingos and Andean hairy armadillos.
