Mapping and Monitoring Rangelands in Bhijer (Mukporong) and Saldang (Buddha) Areas, Shey Phoksundo National Park, Upper Dolpa
WWF Nepal is seeking a qualified VAT-registered organization in Nepal to support the mapping and long-term monitoring of high-altitude rangelands in the Mukporong (Bhijer) and Buddha (Saldang) Buffer Zone User Committees (BZUCs) of Shey Phoksundo National Park under the UK Government-supported Darwin Initiative.
The assignment aims to strengthen community-led rangeland co-management by mapping rangelands and sacred sites, assessing livestock carrying capacity, establishing baseline information on anthropogenic pressures, and developing a standardized long-term monitoring protocol. The consultancy will also build the capacity of the newly formed Rangeland Management Sub-committees (RMScs) to undertake scientific rangeland monitoring and data collection, integrating traditional ecological knowledge with modern scientific approaches.
The selected organization will develop a robust mapping and monitoring methodology, train RMSc members, guide field data collection, analyze rangeland productivity and carrying capacity, quantify baseline anthropogenic impacts, and produce technical reports, GIS maps, monitoring protocols, and training materials to support long-term habitat management in Upper Dolpa.
Interested VAT-registered organizations in Nepal are invited to submit technical and financial proposals to proposals-wildlife@wwfnepal.org with the subject line "Proposal – Mapping and monitoring rangelands of Upper Dolpa" by 5:00 PM, 8 July 2026.
Further details can be accessed through the ToR which can be downloaded here.
Only shortlisted applicants will be contacted for further consideration. Additional documents may be requested for contracting purposes.
