This lavishly illustrated report reveals fully the global conservation importance of the proposed Western Siem Pang Protected Forest located in a remote area of northern Cambodia near the border with Laos and collates for the first time all the biodiversity information gathered by BirdLife and partners over the last decade. This report is an output of the project entitled Evaluating, Consolidating and sustaining conservation of key sites in the Lower Mekong which was funded by the John D. and Catherine T. MacArthur Foundation.
BirdLife International began in October 2010 implementation of a two-year project entitled Cambodia dry forest vulnerability and adaptation project (CAMFVAP), with funding from the MacArthur Foundation. The project has five objectives: i) To publish an assessment of the vulnerability of the Proposed Western Siem Pang Protected Forest and the dry forest landscape to climate change; ii) To identify and test appropriate management adaptation measures. iii) To develop and test an adaptation monitoring framework; iv) To develop a strategic vision and feasibility study for a long-term biodiversity conservation programme that responds to expected climate change impacts for the Proposed Western Siem Pang Protected Forest; and ) To inform the national policy debate of the value of the dry forest ecosystem in climate change adaptation planning..jpg)
Traditional land management can support important and distinctive biodiversity in landscapes where these practices substitute for lost natural processes. Conservation could work closely with local communities to protect this biodiversity, but how this is achieved depends on the extent to which local people rely on the landscape and the livelihood practices benefitting biodiversity, and the long-term prospects for these practices. The author examines these issues in the case of the dry forest ecosystem in northern Cambodia, where domestic livestock and low- intensity rice cultivation benefit a suite of threatened species. The author valued the importance of livelihood activities and natural resource use for the forest community and examined early signs and likely impacts of change. This report is the output a two-year project entitled Cambodia dry forest vulnerability and adaptation project (CAMFVAP), with funding from the MacArthur Foundation. Read the full report .jpg)
