This was a joint project between the UNEP World Conservation Monitoring Centre (UNEP-WCMC) and the King Mahendra Trust for Nature Conservation (KMTNC) and was funded by the Darwin Initiative of the UK government from 2002 to 2005. The principal goal of the Darwin project was to strengthen the capacity of KMTNC to include biodiversity information in management decisions of the Annapuma Conservation Area Project (ACAP). These guidelines have been developed through the Darwin project's training courses and the field testing of the monitoring protocols by KMTNC staff.
