The overall goal of the project is to conserve internationally significant biodiversity found in Bolikhamxay Province. This goal will be reached via three objectives: 1) Increase the capacity of national and provincial staff to design, implement, and monitor the effectiveness of wildlife conservation activities; 2) Increase the extent of implementation and monitoring of conservation activities by national, provincial, district staff and villagers in Bolikhamxay Province protected areas; 3) Increase the local constituency around the Nam Kading NPA and the PPAs that practice sustainable natural resource use.
