Livestock and Pasture Development Project - II

General

The project aims to increase the nutritional status and incomes of 22,400 poor households in four districts of the Khatlon region by sustainably enhancing livestock productivity and climate resilience in a sustainable matter. Special attention will be given to woman-headed households and women belonging to poor households. Land and natural resource governance related interventions aim at securing land tenure by strengthening Pasture Users’ Union and through the titling of land user right certificates. The goal is to issuing 160 land use rights agreements to the Pasture Users' Union. This should lead to the reduction of disputes regarding access to pastures by 50%. The programme will also support the implementation of Tajikistan’s Pasture Law on different levels.
