Advance the conservation progress for the Onocyclus Irises achieved through previous work. Provide institutional development support for the micro-reserves to elaborate on a preliminary management plan, setting management objectives and conservation targets for the endemic and threatened Iris species. Conduct In-Situ conservation through population reinforcement and translocation to guarantee a viable Iris population.
