A consortium of four organizations that includes WWF, the National Trust for Nature Conservation, Federation of Community Forestry Users Nepal and CARE is involved in a five year USAID funded project called Hariyo Ban. The overall goal of the Hariyo Ban Program is to reduce adverse impacts of climate change and threats to biodiversity in two landscapes of Nepal. The Hariyo Ban Program works on three core, interwoven components: biodiversity conservation, sustainable landscapes, and climate change adaptation. Livelihoods, governance, and gender and social inclusion were also identified as important cross-cutting themes.
