Outline of Final Research Achievements

Poverty in the study areas creates heavy dependency on natural resources including wildlife. The locals have been adapting to socio-political changes in the past two decades by diversifying the forms of pastoralism. Tourism is new, and only limited households are involved in it. Most locals do not understand the need of sustainability, and the effects and significance of geo-ecotourism development. Sustaining the diversified pastoralism is a must for future sustainability in the study areas. The current total number of livestock is much smaller than that in the Soviet time, and the locals can now decide their pastoral practice by themselves, which has led to non-overgrazed situations. However, the diversified pastoralism has resulted in inequality of pastureland use, which may cause land degradation in the near future.
