Planning Grant Poudre D'Or-Sarcelles Project
The project is basically a restoration and conservation one initiated through an innovative approach to sensitize towards the conservation of the biodiversity of wetlands. The project will be based on Ramsar`s criteria of wise use activities and therefore will be substantiated through a revival of local crafts and arts and other wise use activities.
Planning grant will be mainly used for:
1. Site appraisal with the help of consultants to define potential development avenues. Also appraisal of the pollution and its impact on the site to be restored.
2. Consultation with capacity building authority to appraise extent of involvement and monitoring programme necessary to a successful monitoring of project.
3. Seminar with local community as suggested by the Priest of Poudre D?Or and Village Council Members of Poste Lafayette for proper participation of locals
4. Purchase of maps and books on the area?s fauna and flora prior to the project final formulation.

Emphasis on Sustainable Livelihoods
It is believed that the integrated alternative development proposal of a sustainable eco tourism initiative on the wetlands site of Sarselles/Poudre D`Or could be the best participatory initiative that could be proposed to alleviate folk marginality as well as sustain a restoration/conservation of a potential Ramsar site.
The end all outcome has to be a management of a biotope that would offer the best integrated sustainable eco tourism with local participation and nature park management within that specific territory.
