26 0930 3_cegorn_customary tenure recognition in vietnammrlgregion
This document discusses community-based forest management in Vietnam. It notes that over 1.26 million hectares of forestland is managed by community forest groups. The forestry law of 2017 recognized customary forest practices and prioritized forest allocation to ethnic minority communities. However, challenges remain around the legal framework, local institutional capacity and flexibility, market access, and safeguards for vulnerable groups. Case studies show how cooperatives have helped communities market forest products and increase land tenure security. Moving forward, greater recognition of community tenure rights is needed alongside legal reforms and capacity building to strengthen community forest management.
26 1400 1_fao_global & regional overview of community forest tenuremrlgregion
This document discusses global and regional trends in forest tenure for communities and smallholders. Over the past 40 years, there has been a trend toward stronger legal recognition of community-based forestry rights, with about 1/3 of forests now owned or managed by local communities. However, while legal rights have strengthened in many places, implementation remains a challenge, limiting the potential economic benefits. Six key factors are identified that could help unlock greater benefits if tenure rights were strengthened, including improving forest governance and sustaining livelihoods.

This document summarizes a study on community forest management (CFM) in Vietnam and the pathways towards resilience. The main findings are:
1) Local participation in forest allocation and management is low, and local institutions are weak, limiting community resilience.
2) Government and non-government support for CFM is lacking, with unclear benefit sharing and low incentives for protection.
3) While some global initiatives like REDD+ aim to support CFM, implementation has been limited and national payment for ecosystem services programs have low participation and disbursement rates.
4) Overall, the lack of secure forest tenure, viable business opportunities, strong local institutions, and effective government programs undermine community resilience in forest

Sung village in Hoa Binh Province has traditionally managed 367 hectares of protection forest for over 500 years. The village divides the forest area among 44 households and manages exploitation according to customary rules. A new co-management model between the village, the forest management board, and local government aims to strengthen customary tenure rights and improve livelihoods through developing a Shan tea value chain. Expected results include enhancing people's rights and roles in forest governance, improving capacity in forest and tea management, and increasing community incomes and responsibility over the forest area. The model has potential to be scaled up across other communes given support from relevant laws and policies and the forest management board's plans.

Problem and prospects on collaborative forest management in nepalMohangajurel2
Collaborative forest management (CoFM) is a partnership approach to managing forests between local communities, local governments, and the central government forestry department. CoFM aims to sustainably manage forests to benefit the local and national economy through community involvement in conservation and utilization of forest resources. However, implementing CoFM over large areas with many stakeholders faces challenges, such as the time-consuming process for approval of operational plans and unequal benefit sharing. While CoFM has potential advantages if properly implemented, there is concern that it concentrates too much power with the government compared to community forestry.

The Dynamics of Forests, Livelihoods and Poverty Alleviation Relationships – ...IFPRIMaSSP
Forests play very critical roles in Malawi. Over 90% of the country’s energy requirements are fuelwood-based. However, Malawi, like most Sub-Saharan African countries, presents a case of policy dilemma in sustainable forest management. With its growing population and the resultant contraction of per capita land area, coupled with the ever increasing fuelwood demand, the challenge is to sustainably manage the forests without alienating the majority of rural communities whose livelihoods heavily depend on the forests. There is therefore need to fully understand the forest-reliant people if the goal of sustainable forest management is to be achieved. The aim of this desk study is to characterize the forest-livelihoods-poverty alleviation links and their impact on households’ choice of livelihood strategies. By synthesizing relevant theoretical and empirical literature, the study demonstrates that the links between poverty and forests are complex. For example, while there is evidence that it is the poor that rely more on forests, the reverse causality, though rare in literature, is also possible, i.e. forest reliance can act as a poverty trap. Understanding the livelihood status of forest-reliant households is therefore a necessary condition to sustainably manage the forests in particular and other environmental resources in general.

1. The document discusses forest resources in India, including types of forests, their importance, causes of deforestation, and efforts around afforestation.
2. Forests provide important ecological functions like regulating climate and rainfall, producing oxygen, and serving as wildlife habitats. They also have economic importance as a source of timber, fuelwood, and goods for industries.
3. Deforestation is caused by factors like population growth, infrastructure development, and agricultural expansion. It leads to issues like soil erosion, desertification, and loss of biodiversity. Afforestation efforts aim to control deforestation and protect the environment.

Polio is a potentially fatal viral disease that mainly affects young children and used to be more common in the United States and other countries. While vaccines have reduced cases significantly worldwide, it is still found occasionally in Afghanistan and Pakistan. The poliovirus enters the body through the mouth and multiplies in the throat before invading the nervous system, where it can cause muscle paralysis. Widespread vaccination beginning in the 1950s has now nearly eradicated polio globally.

Viet nam Payment for Forest Environmental ServicesPham Nam
Viet Nam has implemented a Payment for Forest Environmental Services (PFES) policy to address deforestation, provide benefits to forest-dependent communities, and recognize the value of ecosystem services. The policy pays forest owners for protecting soils, regulating water flows, sequestering carbon, and conserving biodiversity. Initial payments have totaled $5-8 million annually but are projected to reach $62-117 million by 2020. Challenges include economic pressures, setting fair payment rates, and building capacity. The country is now exploring expanding the program to include reducing emissions from deforestation and forest degradation through the UN-REDD+ program and private projects.
Forest and Wildlife resources are of great significance to millions of people, especially those whose livelihoods largely depend on them. These resources play a key role in protecting the environment and are of tremendous importance to the sustainable development of every country. Forest and Wildlife resources policies and institutions are critical to achieving sustainable forest management. Recognizing the importance of forest and wildlife resources and the need for appropriate measures to optimize their utilization and management in Ghana, various past governments formulated policies for developing a national forest estate, wildlife sites and a timber industry that guarantee a full range of sustainable benefits for the population. However, most of the forest and wildlife policies have failed to address the fundamental challenges of forest and wildlife management in the country.
The document summarizes social forestry programs in the Philippines. It discusses that approximately 70% of Philippines land was originally forested but declined to 26% today. The government introduced community-based forest management to improve sustainability. The national strategy is community-based forest management (CBFM) which involves local communities in forestry. CBFM is administered by the Department of Environment and Natural Resources and aims to address poverty and deforestation. The document outlines the scope of social forestry programs including farm forestry, agroforestry, community forestry and extension forestry. It also discusses accomplishments, problems, and constraints of social forestry programs in the Philippines.
The document summarizes the Livelihoods and Forestry Programme's (LFP) approach to Animation and Social Mobilisation (A/SM) to empower local communities and improve access to benefits from forest resources. The LFP recruits local animators and social mobilizers to work with Forest User Groups and mobilize communities through awareness raising, participation, and empowering marginalized groups. The goal is more equitable and sustainable forest management that improves livelihoods, especially for the poor and excluded. Monitoring shows A/SM has led to benefits like better community forest management, more equitable resource distribution, and targeted income activities for vulnerable groups.
This document analyzes mangrove restoration projects in Vietnam and how they promote adaptation and development. It finds that projects focusing only on protection had mixed results, while projects taking a multi-functional approach integrating protection, development and livelihoods fared better. It recommends Vietnam's new mangrove program explicitly link restoration with sustainable development and poverty reduction through collaborative management involving local communities.
Ha pham an assessment on the mangroves restoration and rehabilitation proje...Ha Pham
Adaptation and development have theoretically been considered to have an apparent relationship, in which adaptation to minimize the adverse impact of climate variability will facilitate development process and development, in its turn, will maximize resources to benefit resilience from natural catastrophe. In particularly, climate change adaptation often focuses on the poor and the most vulnerable population. These groups are characterized by extremely weak adaptive capacity, most seriously impacted status, and severely lack of appropriate resource for recovery. This paper will evaluate two mangroves restoration and rehabilitation projects in Vietnam to discover the embedded inter-linkages of adaptation and development. The main argument is that Vietnamese government practically do not favor development via adaptation although they recognize the importance and support that harmonization in theory. The following sections will review the theory of adaptation as/ and development and adaptation for the poor and poorest people, analyze the coincidence of climate change adaptation and livelihood improvement in some mangroves restoration and rehabilitation. Based on these frameworks, the last sections will assess two mangrove planting and protection in Vietnam in term of adaptation – development linkages, represent the root causes, and propose some recommendation.

The document is a progress report by the American Forest Foundation (AFF) on programs in the 2012 Farm Bill that support family forest owners. It analyzes data from the USDA on fiscal year 2011. Key points:
- Farm Bill conservation programs like EQIP provide essential support to bolster stewardship of family-owned forests, which cover 251 million acres.
- Threats to these private forests are increasing from wildfire, insects, disease, development and changing ownership.
- EQIP spending on forestry practices has increased 130% since 2007 to $41 million in 2011, indicating the 2008 Farm Bill changes are improving forest management.
- However, forestry still receives a low percentage of EQ

Policy Implementation Analysis Of Forest Co Management ProgramCC BASE
1) The document analyzes the implementation of a forest co-management policy in Banyumas, Central Java using a policy implementation approach to understand the influences of content and contextual variables.
2) The forest co-management policy aimed to improve sustainability and economic benefits of forest resources for local communities and authorities through greater participation and responsibility.
3) Analysis found issues with lack of participation in decision making, unclear responsibilities, and lack of coordination that hindered effective implementation. Power dynamics and economic pressures on forests also posed challenges.

Forests play a critical role in transitioning to a green economy. Investing in sustainable forest management, conservation, and payment schemes can contribute to green economic growth, poverty reduction, and environmental protection. The document recommends catalyzing public and private investments in forests through policy reforms, capacity building, and international cooperation mechanisms such as REDD+ to generate jobs and economic benefits while reducing deforestation and degradation.

Assessing livelihood piloting experiences associated with hydropower developmentCPWF Mekong
This document summarizes livelihood piloting experiences associated with hydropower development in Vietnam, Lao PDR, and Cambodia. Key outcomes include: 1) Introduction of a short term cassava variety in Vietnam that increased yields and farmer incomes; 2) Integrated rice-fish culture in Lao PDR that increased rice productivity and protein supply; and 3) Small scale aquaculture and vegetable production in Cambodia that diversified incomes and supported food security. Lessons learned indicate communities need more than one year to adopt new technologies, and partnerships with local authorities and companies can enable piloting of livelihood activities.

1. POLICY BRIEF
Piloting Payments for Forest Environmental Servicesin
Lam Dong: Lessons for national scaling up in Vietnam
Introduction:
Deforestation has been occurring widely in Vietnam threatening the key environmental resources
and livelihoods of communities, particularly ethnic minorities living in upland Vietnam.
Payment for Forest Environmental Services (PFES) program can protect forest while also
improve the livelihoods for communities.
From 2008 to 2010,the Decision 380/QD-TTg indicated that policy on Forest Environment
Service Payment (PFES) have been piloted in Lam Dong and Son La provinces.The main
objectives are to socialize the protection of forest protection and development to improve
livelihoods of forest laborers and to eradicate hunger, and reduce poverty for the mountainous
and forest areas. Hue College of Economics has conducted the research to evaluatethe
performance and impacts of the pilot PFES program, and draw lessons learnt to build a national
policy implementation for scaling up the adoption of PFES throughout the country.
Scope of problem
Poverty and Deforestation
Viet Nam’s uplandregion has the highest rates of poverty, particularlyethnic minority
communities living in forest the incidence of poverty is highest.The livelihood of poor
households has been tend to be subsistence with access to forest is dominant practice byillegal
logging to forest for timber and woods, forest slash and burn/encroachment for agricultural
cultivation, thus leading cause to deforestation occurring widely in Vietnam.
Forests play a critical role in supporting livelihoods of the poor and providing diverse
environmental services. Deforestation is the leading cause of environmental problems such as
climate change, biodiversity degradation, and soil erosion which, inverse, have been threatening
the livelihoods of the poor in this region.
The PFES: Effective national program on forest management and poverty reduction:
The PFES is first self-reliance budget program on forest management and poverty reduction. It
generated about US$ 4.46 in which hydropower plants paid about 89 percent of total PFES Fund.
PFES program has engaged 7997 households, in which 6858 households are ethnic minorities in
forest allocation and protection. PFES has resulted in enhance protection of 209,705 hectares of
forest land. The PFES scheme has increased about 30% of total annual income of participants
(about VND 10.5 – 12 million). The participation in PFES program after two years of its
implementation has reduced about 50 percent of households from the poverty line. This shows a
strong economic impact of the PFES program to local households in Lam Dong province.
PFEShas become incentive scheme to improve the participation of households, particularly
poverty households in forest protection. PFES participants were grouped to protect the certain
forest area. Each group worked as community-based forest management. It means that more
people and more time spent for forest management as each household in each group has the same
responsibility and time allocated for forest protection.As the result, the area of forest
2. invaded/encroached has been reduced and the number of reported cases of illegal logging and
wildlife poaching decreases by 50 percent.
The following bullet points are raised for central government and provincial ones to increase the
sustainability in PFES organization and implementation:
Recommendation for action
Right household selection, better poverty reduction
Defining and selecting the right households for PFES participation will increase the
impacts of program on the poverty reduction objective.
Clear responsibility of stakeholders:
Defining clear responsibility among PFES stakeholders, particularly PFES service
providers is one of the most important factors to enhance the participatory willingness of
PFES stakeholders,
Increasing the surveillance of the quality of forest services and responsibility of PFES
providers in maintaining the quality of forest will increase the sustainability of PFES
implementation.
Diversifying the PFES service users will increase the consensus in achieving objectives
of PFES program.
Defining the K-coefficient index needto take local voices into account will increase the
equity in PFES payment rate among households living in different catchment areas.
Transparency in PFES fund allocation and management
Increasing the transparency in PFES fund allocation and management among
stakeholders, thus leading to enhance the willingness to participate in PFES program.
Eliminating the subtraction of 10% of total PFES payment for management cost, thus
leading an increase in budget for households in order to incentivize them to protect the
forest.
Increasing the stakeholders’ participation in PFES Fund collection and management will
increase the sustainability of PFES.
Incentivizing household involving in PFES:
Defining PFES payment rate for household should base on the quality of forest of
households. An application of K-index = 1 does not incentivize households to invest
more time and labor in forest protection.
Ensuring PFES payment rate for households in coming period, which should not be lower
than the payment level of previous payroll is important factor in order to incentivize
households putting more effort in forest protection.
