| abstract: | This project targets 8 of 30 protected areas in Timor Leste. These areas were selected because they contain high levels of biodiversity and threatened species, their boundaries are still unclear, and there is a lack of alternative livelihoods in those protected areas which drives deforestation, coral reef destruction and over-exploitation of wildlife. Specifically, the project seeks to create management plans for these protected areas, develop alternative livelihood for the communities living in and around these protected areas, increase staff capacity to manage these protected areas, and build geographic information systems (GIS) capacity to provide up-to-date information on the protected areas. |
