Bushmeat Awareness and Sustainable Development in Southeast Liberia Project

Steer impoverished communities in three counties of Liberia away from slash and burn agriculture and hunting of wild animals toward the economic alternative of raising livestock. Activities include raising awareness about the unsustainable bushmeat hunting; surveying local communities to determine acceptable alternatives to bushmeat that could be promoted in a future initiative and ultimately becoming involved in the management of buffer areas near protected areas.
