The World Wildlife Fund (WWF) offers a $5,354,586 grant through the Global Environment Facility (GEF) to support the "Promoting Dryland Sustainable Landscapes and Biodiversity Conservation in the Eastern Steppe of Mongolia" project. This initiative, implemented by WWF-US and FAO in collaboration with Mongolia's Ministry of Environment and Tourism, aims to combat dryland ecosystem degradation and biodiversity loss by addressing forest degradation, deforestation, and unsustainable resource use. While specific eligibility criteria are not provided, the project focuses on enhancing governance, cross-sectoral coordination, and local capacity-building in the Eastern Steppe region.
