Bio-ecological Nature Conservation Project in Mountainous Region of Northern Vietnam

This project aims at deepening our scientific knowledge of natural ecosystem, biodiversity in particular, and at contributing to nature conservation and sustainable development policies in Vietnam. More specifically, targeting an environmentally valuable but vulnerable limestone (karst) zone in the northern part of Vietnam (mainly, four provinces, i.e., Tuyen Quang, Bac Can, Cao Bang, and Ha Giang), this project focuses on elucidation of the facts and causes of environmental degradation in recent days due primarily to economic development represented by land use/land cover changes and search for practical solution or mitigation. This project also aims to contribute to enhancement of young scientists’ research capabilities, for the purpose of attaining another fundamental goal of the NEF.
