WWF supports Tram Chim National Park to improve its ecosystem

In order to improve the ecosystem and community livelihoods around Tram Chim National Park in Tam Nong district (Dong Thap), this is a program sponsored by the Representative Office of the World Wide Fund for Nature in Vietnam (WWF for short).

Mr. Doan Van Quick, Deputy Director of Tram Chim National Park Conservation Center said: The improvement of the ecosystem and community livelihoods around Tram Chim National Park aims to help enhance regulatory services and water recovery capacity in the park and buffer zone. This also helps improve water connectivity and floodplain restoration, aiming to improve the ecosystem and local community livelihoods in Tram Chim National Park and the surrounding areas.

Evaluation from the results shows that the project has removed and lowered 600m of dikes inland of the Gao Doi canal dike in area A4, gathering them into 2 high mounds to create a habitat for animals - especially in the dry season. Restoring about 50 ha of grassland habitat, Hoang Dau An flower in subdivision A4. Carry out monitoring and supervision of flora in the recovery area, and support 50 farmer households in the buffer zone to convert from third-crop rice planting models to flood-season livelihood models...

Especially in the coming time, WWF will continue to support Tram Chim National Park in carrying out biodiversity conservation activities, improving connectivity and storage time of water and sediment in flood fields and wetlands, replicating natural livelihood models and flood-season fields around the garden and communication to raise community awareness.
