Abstract
On June 5, a World Environment Day delegation led by Prince Mostapha Zaher, Director-General of Afghanistan’s National Environment Protection Agency (NEPA), along with representatives of the Afghan Ministry of Agriculture, Irrigation and Livestock (MAIL) and the Wildlife Conservation Society (WCS) will celebrate with members of the Kyrgyz communities by the alpine shores of Lake Chaqmaqtin in the remote, rarely-visited Little Pamir region. In partnership with the people of Wakhan, WCS, MAIL, and NEPA have embarked upon a program of bringing development to the area through wildlife conservation and sustainable management of the area’s natural resources.
