Gabal Elba Dragon tree

In Ethiopia, D. ombet is found in the relic Desa'a forest, and our own previous studies on it showed it is threatened by overexploitation and habitat degradation. As a result, it is now with lack of regeneration and recruitments. This project will jointly work with the local stakeholders to introduce three interlinked conservation interventions for the species: capacity building, livelihood improvement and habitat restoration.
