Biocultural Protocol of the Jaisalmer Camel Breeders

The efforts to develop the Biocultural Community Protocol of the camel breeders in Jaisalmer already started in 2011. Now a draft version is ready – it informs about the local camel heritage that binds together several different castes, including Muslims, Raika, Rajputs, Bishnoi, Meghwal and others. The next step will be to get the draft version validated by the different communities. Hopefully, the BCP can be released later this year. More information about this BCP and the process it involved can be found here.
