On this #worldpangolinday, we are in Chitwan, home of rhinos, tigers and yes pangolins! We shared our priliminary research results & discussed with park officials & local indigenous communities on joint efforts to conserve pangolins.

Last week, we had the honor of organising the The Rufford Foundation Learning Event Nepal 2024 in Chitwan, gathering 18 selected Rufford grantees from across the country to learn from each other and support more impactful conservation on the ground. We extend our heartfelt gratitude to the Rufford Foundation for entrusting us with this responsibility. We thank our incredible facilitators, local government, park authorities, participants, and wonderful community stewards for making this a truly memorable and worthwhile week! #ruffordlenepal024

We had a great time interacting with the nursery growers in Mahankal Rural Municipality, Lalitpur. The discussion focused on the potential and needs of nurseries, the trade of medicinal plants, market conditions, and the feasibility of domesticating wild medicinal plants. We extend our sincere gratitude to the DFO officials for their valuable participation and support in ensuring the success of the program. #MedicinalPlantsNepal

With Global Initiative against Transnational Organized Crime, we had Resilience Dialogue in Kathmandu last week. It brought together Nepal's key civil society organizations, researchers, and local community representatives to explore the local contexts and impacts of nature crimes, and how we can work together to respond to it.

कृष्ण जन्माष्टमीको समयमा मन्दिर वरपर मयूरको रङ्गिन प्वाँख किनबेच भईरेहेको देख्नुभयो होला। तपाईंले पनि किन्नु भयो कि ? तर, तपाईंलाई थाहा छ, नेपालको कानुनले मयुरको प्वाँख किनवेच र प्रयोग बर्जित गरेको छ र सो कार्य गरे ५ वर्ष सम्म जेल र १ लाख रुपयाँ सम्म जरिवाना वा दुवै सजाय हुन सक्छ। सचेत बनौ र वन्यजन्तु संरक्षणमा सहयोग गरौं ।
