Himalayan Mountain Conservation in Nepal

Volunteers on the Projects Abroad Conservation project in Nepal will work in the stunning Annapurna Mountain range in the Himalayas. 

The Annapurna Mountain range is home to the Snow Leopard, Black Bear, Musk Deer and several bird species including endangered species of vultures. This area is continuously threatened by the pressures of climate change, loss of habitat and human encroachment. The result is a loss of biodiversity and environmental degradation.

The main aim of this project is to preserve and enhance the natural resources within the area and aid social development in the villages. The project works with a national conservation organisation, Annapurna Conservation Area Project.

Volunteers on this project can get involved in a wide variety of activities such as; wildlife research, Rhododendron regeneration surveys, water station monitoring, and community-based activities, including rubbish collection and conservation education for the local communities.
