This subproject is one of many research subprojects utilizing the resources provided by a Center grant funded by NIH/NCRR. The subproject and investigator (PI) may have received primary funding from another NIH source, and thus could be represented in other CRISP entries. The institution listed is for the Center, which is not necessarily the institution for the investigator. To conserve the golden langur (Trachypithecus geei) in India. The Golden Langur Conservation Project is a holistic project that blends conservation, research, education, economic development and community development. We focus on the full range of the golden langur in western Assam, India. We work with more than 130 villages to create forest protection committees and self-help groups that create economic opportunities for villagers. We are stepping up conservation and evaluation efforts at one focal area, the 17.2 sq. Kakoijana Reserve Forest. Project participants, including national forest members and villagers from adjacent communities, plan to measure changes in reforestation, the increase in golden langurs, and changes in economic development within 10 communities surrounding Kakoijana. We aim to provide definitive proof of the success of the holistic community conservation approach by: 1) Providing data supporting the success of the conservation efforts; 2) Creating a monitoring program for one golden langur population; 3) Creating a community-based research program; 4) Gathering data on ecology and behavior of golden langurs in Kakoijana; 5) Training villagers in simple data gathering methods; 6) Encouraging villager interest in the forests, the monkeys and their conservation; 7) Providing community incentives to protect the langurs and their habitat. The project is running from January to December 2008. Some data-taking is already occurring for two troops in the Kakoijana area. The Jacobsen grant is funding personnel, including the hiring and training of additional community research assistants, to total 15-20, plus on-site transportation, binoculars and GPS units. Participants will also complete mapping of the study sites. Data taking will end December 2008, to complete the grant cycle. Additional data will be taken in 2009 to complete a 12-month yearly cycle. The Lawrence Jacobsen Conservation Award from the Wisconsin National Primate Research Center isi a new award that supports studies in applied conservation biology that protect non-human primate species and their habitats.

该子项目是利用该技术的众多研究子项目之一 资源由 NIH/NCRR 资助的中心拨款提供。子项目和 研究者 (PI) 可能已从 NIH 的另一个来源获得主要资金， 因此可以在其他 CRISP 条目中表示。列出的机构是 对于中心来说，它不一定是研究者的机构。 保护印度的金叶猴 (Trachypithecus geei)。 金叶猴保护项目是一个集保护、研究、教育、经济发展和社区发展于一体的整体项目。我们专注于印度阿萨姆邦西部的全系列金叶猴。我们与 130 多个村庄合作，成立森林保护委员会和自助小组，为村民创造经济机会。 我们正在加强对一个重点区域——17.2 平方公里的 Kakoijana 保护区森林的保护和评估工作。项目参与者，包括国家森林成员和邻近社区的村民，计划测量 Kakoijana 周边 10 个社区内重新造林的变化、金叶猴的增加以及经济发展的变化。 我们的目标是通过以下方式提供整体社区保护方法成功的明确证据：1）提供支持保护工作成功的数据； 2) 制定金叶猴种群监测计划； 3）创建基于社区的研究计划； 4) 收集Kakoijana金叶猴的生态和行为数据； 5）对村民进行简单的数据收集方法培训； 6) 激发村民对森林、猴子及其保护的兴趣； 7) 提供社区激励措施来保护叶猴及其栖息地。 该项目从 2008 年 1 月持续到 12 月。已经为 Kakoijana 地区的两支部队进行了一些数据采集。雅各布森赠款用于资助人员，包括雇用和培训额外的社区研究助理（总数为 15-20 人），以及现场交通、双筒望远镜和 GPS 设备。参与者还将完成研究地点的绘图。数据采集​​将于 2008 年 12 月结束，以完成拨款周期。 2009 年将获取更多数据以完成 12 个月的年度周期。 威斯康星州国家灵长类研究中心颁发的劳伦斯·雅各布森保护奖是一个新奖项，旨在支持保护非人类灵长类物种及其栖息地的应用保护生物学研究。
