Natural Resource Management and Livelihood Improvement Project

The very large portion of this largest district of Nepal has been covered by perpetural snow, sloppy terrain forest and grazing meadows and only 076% of the total area is cultivated. Valuable herbs have placed this district in better position in context of Natural resource endowment index. The main aim of this project is initiation of environment conservation and raising the income level of rural population through management of Natural resource management. Successful completion of the project will result in conservation of medicinal herbs and other indigenous species will be protected as well as help in improving livelihood of the project.
