Through conservation education, community engagement, and scientific research, ISLC works to reduce human-wildlife conflict and promote sustainable livelihoods among local communities. By involving local people in conservation efforts, the organization aims to create a balance where both the snow leopard population thrives and communities benefit economically, ultimately fostering a greater appreciation for these magnificent cats and their ecosystems.
