Plateau Perspectives is an international non-profit organization that aims to promote conservation and sustainable development in the Tibetan Plateau region of China.

In Qinghai Province, our main geographic focus to date, we work closely with local government, local communities and civil society, and with national and international academic institutions to achieve the following objectives:

	to protect the headwaters of the Yangtze, Yellow and Mekong Rivers
	to promote sustainable livelihoods in this fragile alpine environment
	to enhance the provision of social services for Tibetan pastoralists

Our most recent project activities have been undertaken in Zhiduo, Zaduo and Qumalai counties of Yushu Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture.
