The Ministry Spokesperson Muhammad Saleem told APP that under sustainable forest management and wildlife conservation, the MoCC had initiated Snow Leopard and Ecosystem Protection Programme funded by Global Environment Facility (GEF).
The project was initiated on September 2018 and aimed to promote an integrated landscape-wide approach for the survival of snow leopard and its prey species by reducing threats and applying sustainable land and forest management in critical habitats in northern Pakistan.

In this regard a three-day Pakistan National Strategic Workshop was carried out from January 21 to 23 on 'Conservation of Raptors in Pakistan and Safeguarding of Falconry: A Heritage Sport'.
The global experts including Chief Executive Officer of International Conservation of Falconry and Birds of Prey (IAF), President IAF for Asia Region, Head of Convention on Migratory Species (CMS) were invited to participate in the two day workshop held in Islamabad. They have developed a policy framework after detailed discussions with all stakeholders, he said.
