Conservation of fish species and community livelihood improvement
Conservation of fish species and community livelihood improvement
The project is aiming at the protection and conservation of natural resources through the establishment and protection of a community conservation area. This project has proposed to establish two community conservation lakes (5.50 ha), aiming at increasing fish stock and protection of 4 ha ha of existing flooded forest and the reforestation of 2 ha of flooded forest around these conservation lakes which will help to improve the fish habitat, increase biodiversity and protect water birds in Community Fisheries areas. The project also provides education to communities to appreciate and protect environmental resources which could lead to a decrease or end of illegal fishing. In addition to that the project will empower women in participation and leadership in group management through organizing them 7 groups (10-15 women each) to participate in protection and conservation of natural resources and actively take part in other community activities.
