Only 8.2 % of Mongolia's territory is covered by forest. Over the last 15 years, while Mongolia has hardly been struggling to shift in to a market economy, forest resources of the country have seriously been damaged by illegal logging. Although the Government is hardly fighting against this illegal activity, forests are being continued to be depleted. Involvement of local communities in forest protection activities is sought to be a most promising measure in the future. The grant is given to support an NGO's initiative to set up a voluntary community nature protectors' network in order to halt illegal logging of trees for fuel and housing materials and also to prevent wild forest fires which are mostly caused by human. Community involved measures to control /block main roads used for transportation of illegally cut trees and woods have started recently in tree places as the project has just started its activities.
