Sustainable forest management

Implementing core forestry operations, including nursery development, soil and water conservation, fire management, and infrastructure development to restore natural resources and improve community conditions.

Sustainable forest management

This component includes the planning and implementation of core forestry operations.

The major sub-components include grassroots planning of forestry operations, implementing forest working plans for individual forest units, planning and developing village-level community nurseries and FED/FD-ADC-managed district-level nurseries, carrying out soil and water conservation measures, managing fire risks in fire-vulnerable forest areas, and developing critical infrastructure for forest management.

To restore and conserve natural resources within villages—while promoting environmental and biodiversity conservation and enhancing the socio-economic conditions of community members—various activities are undertaken under this component.
