Duration: 3 years
Funding: US$46,634

The project aims:
  1. To establish a community-based forest management system at the target locality.
  2. To create regular and stable income sources from annual and perenial crop production and ensure food security for the villagers
  3. To increase the forest coverage and quality through assisting forest regeneration, forest plantation, enrichment and plantation of non-timber species under forest canopy.
