Local Impact Assessment After Forest Land Allocation in Dak Lak, Central Highlands of Vietnam

Résumé du livre

Since 1998, facing with forest loss in the province over the last decade, Dak Lak has initiated a pilot forest devolution program to allocate natural forest, which is under the management of local state forest enterprises, to local people. Two important goals of this forest devolution program are: (1) to maintain and improve existing forest resources (both area and volume); and (2) to improve living standards of forest recipients through benefits derived from forest.
