 Hello, my name is Tumquo Tawaku, Tumquo for short, and this is my father, Tawaku Norbanzit Tawa, and we come from Mongolia and we represent community conservation NGO in Mongolia. In Mongolia, and especially in the area that we're doing work, the local communities approached us and the issues have come to a point where they had to seek support and assistance. Mostly these were environmental issues because Mongolian nomads heavily depend on pasture lands and the scene has changed in the last 5-10 years incredibly. The rivers have dried up, there's a major illegal wood logging problem and also wildlife. And because Mongolians in the countryside live nomadic livestock herding life, they are in touch in contact with wildlife and predators on a daily basis. So starting from retribution killing and predators attacking the livestock is always a struggle there. And then we got involved to coordinate the local community to have a stronger presence and voice there because local communities are there 24-7, they live there, especially nomads and herders, always grazing and going through the landscape so they know exactly where everything is. So they are the best informants, they are the best monitors, so ranges, so it's just important to turn them into the right area and provide some guidance and support. It was interesting to hear some of our peers yesterday and today speaking and then someone mentioned we all have preconceived do's and don'ts and what works and what doesn't. But my father and I come from very different backgrounds, I'm coming from banking and finance, my father has been a military and intelligence officer all his life, so we have no idea about conservation wildlife up to maybe 4 years ago. So for us this was an interesting experience looking at others and also just trying things through trial and error. And sometimes we've witnessed certain small successes that conservation experts would not really believe in. So I think it's all about connecting the dots and attacking the problem with what you think is the best solution. And so we are learning from all these other local protected areas, domestically and internationally from experts. So whatever experience we've had so far, which has been 4 or 5 years only, we'll be very happy if one person takes one point and that potentially helps them. So we're here not to preach to others but really to take in information and ask questions and learn.
