After six years of implementing activities that allowed society to connect with biodiversity, enabled transformative change, and initiated concrete actions to conserve biodiversity, the 𝘉𝘪𝘰𝘥𝘪𝘷𝘦𝘳𝘴𝘪𝘵𝘺 𝘊𝘰𝘯𝘴𝘦𝘳𝘷𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘔𝘢𝘯𝘢𝘨𝘦𝘮𝘦𝘯𝘵 𝘰𝘧 𝘗𝘳𝘰𝘵𝘦𝘤𝘵𝘦𝘥 𝘈𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘴 𝘪𝘯 𝘈𝘚𝘌𝘈𝘕 will be holding its completion workshop from 6 to 7 June in Jakarta.
To look back on the milestones of this cooperation project between the European Union and the ASEAN, the ACB will be highlighting some of the outputs made possible through the support of the #BCAMP project.
Protecting Wild Elephants’ Habitat
“While economic development is important, we must also consider the ecological and conservation value of protected areas like the Khao Sip Ha Chan National Park in Thailand, which serves as a habitat for wild elephants.”
The Khao Sip Ha Chan National Park (KSHC-NP) in the Eastern Forest Complex (EFCOM) is recognised as one of the most important wild elephant habitats in Thailand. However, the significance of KSHC-NP as one of the major wild elephant habitats has often been overlooked, particularly in view of the construction of the Wang Tanod Reservoir in KSHC-NP. This study thus determined the non-use value of wild elephants and their habitat, with the expectation that the findings could be used to represent the benefits of the ecosystem services of Khao Sip Ha Chan if left undisturbed.
