In Bangladesh, IUCN is working with local communities to conserve and sustain a unique wetland ecosystem, Tanguar Haor. The area is exceptionally biodiverse and contributes to the country's food production and security.<br />But the standard of living in Tanguar Haor is very low, and the wetlands are being exploited in an unsustainable manner. <br /><br />http://iucn.org/<br /><br />copyright & author: IUCN
