Illegal forest cutting by companies and individuals for profit making purposes is another serious problem being faced by forests resources in Mongolia. Forest is formally owned by the state. Although it can be possessed by communities, forest resources are often left without proper utilization practices and continued protective measures. The grant is given to an NGO that is going to practice Community based Forestry in Baishint valley in Hairtkhan mountain to introduce some forest protection measures, experience re-forestation and conduct education and public awareness among local herders. As a first protective measure the main passage to the mountain valley has been controlled. Awareness raising activities have started among local herders. Activities to follow are establishment of a small tree nursery, rehabilitation of forest, protection of spring, etc in the next spring.
