Summary
Illegal Wildlife Trade (IWT) is a key threat to Critically Endangered species within the Leuser Ecosystem, including iconic megafauna for which this ecosystem is their last remaining stronghold. In turn IWT poses threats to community livelihoods, green economy potential, and brings security risks. Within this project, EIA will collaborate with two leading Indonesian conservation NGOs to enhance their current counter IWT programming to the next level of efficiency and impact by sustainably embedding locally led, expert-level capability and capacity.
