Project Overview Overview
CEPF Strategic Direction Strategy

Stabilize the populations of five Critically Endangered bird species at Cambodia’s Siem Pang Wildlife Sanctuary by supporting the establishment of a feral water buffalo herd to mimic the ecological role of extirpated wild water buffalo. Increase local communities’ engagement in wildlife conservation by promoting a scout team of at least 50% women. Reduce land encroachment by providing economic alternatives to local communities, through cultivation of organic, wildlife-friendly rice.

Strategic Direction: 1 Safeguard priority globally threatened species by mitigating major threats
