It is locally protected and an international Ramsar site. The Changpa, nomadic pastoralists, who have inhabited this landscape for several centuries display a complex yet eloquent interface with nature that is evident in their way of life. However, the region is highly vulnerable due to climate change, geopolitical conflicts, and irregular policies affecting both ecosystems and breaking the socio-cultural fabric of the Changpa nomads. The project proposed aims to spatially map the Changpa land-use, their movement, and the wetland ecosystem. Documenting cultural, historical, environmental, and other practical data that showcase interdependencies, interactions, and overlaps between nature and cultural systems. The mapping project could support future landscape management and conservation plans.}, pages = {99--105}, title = {Nature-Culture Mapping in the Trans-Himalayas}, volume = {SPECIAL ISSUE 2019}, year = {2019} }
