Update and implement a conservation plan for the Critically Endangered black-breasted puffleg. To update the plan, the project will update population and habitat data, and develop a new conservation strategy with local stakeholders. For implementation, the project will conduct reforestation and build local awareness on growing favorable plants. Financial sustainability will be sought by mainstreaming the plan into local government programs.

Strategic Direction: 5 Safeguard globally threatened species.
