Transboundary Landscapes is one of the regional programmes that aim to promote conservation and sustainable use of natural resources (biodiversity, rangelands, farming systems, forests, wetlands and watersheds) in landscapes defined by ecosystems rather than administrative boundaries. The programme also seeks to promote sustainable management of natural and cultural heritage. These efforts are in keeping with ICIMOD’s focus on “inter-linkages between ecosystems, upstream-downstream linkages related to ecosystem services, interface between human lives and livelihoods, and linkages to global conservation and development goals” (ICIMOD Strategy and Results Framework 2012).
