Minister for Forest and Environment, Birendra Prasad Mahato, viewed the government is committed to protecting and capitalizing on the achievements made by various government agencies in environmental conservation.
Addressing the inaugural 'UN Environment Assembly that kicked off in Nairobi, Kenya, on Tuesday, Minister Mahato further viewed Nepal as ready to work with development partners such as the UN and WWF which have been assisting Nepal in nature conservation.
He shared that Nepal had succeeded in the decade-long project on 'restoration of ecosystem' with multi-lateral agencies including UN working in environmental conservation. However, the achievement has created a new challenge of human-wildlife conflict, Minister Mahato added.
Minister Mahato informed the global community that in the wake of the restoration of habitats, the number of tigers and rhinoceros increased significantly in Nepal. Now, Nepal's government is focused on strengthening human-nature relations while coping with climate change impact, according to him.
