This project will focus on the promotion of forest conservation and improved forest management as a means to stop deforestation and environmental disasters. The campaign would strive to simultaneously educate policymakers and forestry officials on the need for effective sustainable forest management policies, and consolidate concern and public pressure for resolution of forestry concerns by promoting more active roles for NGOs and civil society in encouraging local and national government (particularly Ministry of Forestry, Ministry of Environment) to take strong action to address forest issues.
