ဂေဟစနစ်ထိန်းသိမ်းခြင်းနှင့်ရပ်ရွာဖွံ့ဖြိုးတိုးတက်မှု အစီအစဉ်

Wulijitu Gacha Grassland, 2011 – 2015

To reduce desertification and offer animals a more sustainable food supply, GEI introduced special foraging grasses, as well as new grassland protection methods, to the Wulijitu Gacha region in 2011 and by 2015, we had implemented sand control measures across 113 hectares. Not only did local herdsmen learn and implement grassland science but the project also attracted 500,000 RMB in funding from the government.

Yunwushan Nature Reserve, 2011 – present

35 households participate in protecting more than 2,850 hectares of grassland inside the Yunwushan Nature Reserve. Through government subsidies in our community development fund, the herders grow and harvest regional plants for an improved environment and livelihood, with their income doubling over the past five years.

Baoxing County, 2006 – 2014

The protection of over 7,000 hectares of woodlands & 300 million cubic meters of water are critical to the resource-dependent
livelihoods of Baoxing County. Beginning in 2006, GEI helped residents carry out beekeeping and other income-generating activities, as well as established an environmental protection fund to keep this precious environment protected for generations.

Sanjiangyuan, 2013 – present

To protect Asia’s vital bodies of water and
foster local development, we designed and
implemented an ecosystem services-based
economic model in Qinghai. Our work is
fostering eco-tourism, traditional craftsman-
ship, and water quality monitoring across
200 households in 12 communities. By 2016,
our project included over 20,000 hectares of
community-protected land were protected and
5 eco-tourism development cooperatives.

Thanbayarkon village, Bago Region, 2015 – 2016

This community development project has carried out a forest planting initiative and provided clean energy technology: 193 biomass cook stoves, 180 solar lights, and 1 solar-powered water pump. GEI established a revolving fund to support the maintenance of the technology and micro-financing of other development projects. Upon its success, the project received 3.3 million USD from China’s South-South Cooperation Fund on Climate Change. In 2017, we began cooperating with 4 Burmese NGOs to scale up this pilot model to reach 14 communities across 4 State/Region in Myanmar.
