Tiger conservation projects and ecosystem conservation in Asia
Published
Through the Global Environment Facility (GEF), Sweden contributes to tiger conservation projects and the preservation of ecosystems in Asia.
The GEF, which Sweden supports, has contributed to tiger conservation projects in Asia. This involves collaboration between countries and organisations to improve tiger conservation and their habitats. Protecting tigers helps to preserve entire ecosystems by limiting the number of herbivores and promoting vegetation.
Tiger populations have increased 40 per cent since 2010, thanks in part to these efforts to combat poaching and preserve their habitats. Despite this progress, tigers still face threats such as habitat loss, poaching, and illegal trade.
