Itanagar: Aaranyak, a premier research-based organization focused on biodiversity conservation, recently hosted an exposure trip for a group of community leaders from the fringe of the Daying Ering Wildlife Sanctuary near Pasighat in Arunachal Pradesh.

The exposure was held for three days.

The trip was designed to educate and expose the leaders, including members of the Eco Development Committee (EDC), to the concept of indigenous community-managed eco-tourism and natural resource management, reports East Mojo.

The team from Arunachal Pradesh, led by the DFO of D’Ering WL Sanctuary, T Taga, was hosted by Aaranyak among the Karbi tribe villagers in Kohora River Basic, in proximity to Kaziranga National Park, the news portal reported.

The purpose of the visit was to give the team an opportunity to experience firsthand, the community-driven eco-tourism and natural resource management as a part of larger biodiversity conservation efforts.

The exposure trip was organized as part of Aaranyak’s Journey for Learning (J4L) initiative.

The goal of the trip was to enable the visiting delegates to learn from the experiences of the indigenous forest fringe communities in establishing community-based eco-tourism ventures at the fringe of Kaziranga National Park, a famous rhino habitat.
