Resultate |
Erwartete Resultate: Resultate von früheren Phasen: Switzerland has been paying particular attention to the rights of religious and cultural minorities, incl. of the Kalasha throughout its interventions in Pakistan. During a SDC funded consultative workshop in January 2017 “Promotion of eco-tourism in Kalasha”, Chitral and Kalasha people, Government officials, thematic experts and NGOs agreed to develop and to operationalize their own framework for the promotion of ecotourism by developing environmental Codes of Conduct (self-regulation and government policies and support). The Government of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa has allocated appr. CHF 500,000 for the next 36 months for the “Promotion, Preservation, and Development of Kalasha Culture”, complementing Switzerland and UNESCO’s efforts. |
