The local community of Nepal’s Limi Valley in Namkha Rural Municipality, Humla manage their natural resources through a traditional system that combines the issues of ecology, culture, religion, and livelihoods. This system governs aspects of natural resource distribution and harvesting, as well as farming and pastoralism in the valley. But like elsewhere, Limi is experiencing social, economic, and political changes that are weakening and threatening Traditional Natural Resource Management Systems (TNRMS). In August 2021, we organized a meeting to inform federal, provincial, and local government officials and stakeholders about the Limi Valley’s TNRMS; share the existing policy provisions and identify gaps so as to get this traditional system formally recognized by the three tiers of government, and discuss a way forward to realize biodiversity outcomes in Limi in consultation with the local community.
