Series of videos on sustainable land management in the Central Mountains of Central Asia that describe the work of the UNU Institute for Environment and Human Security, based in Bonn, Germany. The videos in this series show the work of UNU researchers involved in the PALM project (http://www.ehs.unu.edu/palm/). It aims to address the interlinked problems of land degradation and poverty within one of Central Asia's crucial fresh water sources and biodiversity hotspots.
The project is executed by the Committee on Environment Protection in Tajikistan and National Center for Mountain Regions Development in Kyrgyzstan with financial support from the Global Environment Facility (GEF) and other donors.
