Since 2011 ACTED has been helping the secluded sub-region of Kyzyl-Tuu in Southern Kyrgyzstan to define pasture borders in a bid to reduce tension arising from communities allowing their animals to graze on their neighbours’ winter pasturelands. In June 2012, this project was completed having facilitated the agreements of pasture border demarcation, mapping of pasture resources, and increased local pastoralists’ knowledge of pasture management in order to allow the continuation of their livelihoods with increased production.
