  • Field Notes from Spiti.Pdf
    Field Notes from Spiti: 2003 & 2004 Spiti’s vegetation is sparse, with a human population of about 10,000, one of the lowest densities in India, with important biodiversity and cultural values. In the fall of 2003, the Snow Leopard Conservancy partnered with The Mountain Institute (TMI) and UNESCO for an assessment of Community‐based Tourism and the potential for Traditional Himalayan Homestays in Spiti District, Himachal Pradesh, India. The Homestay program is part of a larger program to link snow leopard conservation with local livelihoods in Asia. Three villages emerged as suitable potential communities with whom to start community‐based tourism activities. All are located close to or in the Kibber Wildlife Sanctuary and Pin Valley National Park, and offered prospects for cultural and wildlife‐based tourism that could build upon existing local skills and knowledge. In order to help ensure sustainability and local ownership, and to build local capacity, SLC worked through two local Spiti organizations focused on cultural and wildlife tourism: MUSE and the All Spiti Youth Association, which joined forces under the banner of EcoSphere in 2007. In September 2003 staff from each organization were among eighteen trainees from Ladakh, Uttaranchal and Himachal Pradesh attending a Community‐Based Tourism course held in the buffer zone of Nanda Devi Biosphere Reserve, a relatively pristine protected area in India’s newly created state of Uttaranchal. The park known for its remoteness and reputation as a sanctuary for snow leopard, blue sheep and musk deer. The training was sponsored by the Uttaranchal Department of Forests’s Center for Ecotourism and Sustainable Livelihoods, TMI and SLC.
