AJK, though rich in biodiversity, has very few protected areas. WWF has undertaken baseline surveys of protected areas and has helped prepare a management plan for the Machiara National Park. In a continued effort to improve the network in AJK, WWF-P plans to conduct resource inventories to identify additional potential protected areas and to work with the provincial government.
