Linking people with nature : biodiversity conservation strategy for the Himal region. Proceedings of the consultative workshop

The Himal region – the Hindukush-Karakorum-Himlayas (HKH)- is the world's largest mountain region extending 3,500km from Myanmar in the east to Afghanistan in the west, from the Tibetan plateau in the north to the Indo-Ganges basin in the south. To develop an IUCN Bangladesh mountain programme for the conservation and sustainable use of biodiversity in this region, a two-day workshop was organized. The proceedings of this workshop focus on the prioritized list of conservation issues in the Himal region, as well as perceived gaps and recommendations for Himal programme, a needs assessment and prioritization of conservation issues in the participating countries.
