A
school awareness project was initiated whose major purpose was to deliver
information about cruelty to animals and their conservation in wild. All the
major bear habitat areas from Chitral to Khiplo and from Dir to Batgram were
targeted for this project. The young energetic school senior students were
selected from all major school in every locality and they were then trained
in a way that they started to monitor the threats towards the general fauna
of their locality and bears in particular and they also started convincing
that almost all stake holders to stop their activities leading to threats to
these species.

Objective:
        
Our
main objective was to analyze not only the literacy rate in the respective
districts but also to create awareness related to wildlife conservation
among the young generation.
The
significant results harvested are being present in a table below:
