How Can We Address Deforestation and Meet National Targets for Community Forestry in ASEAN?

The ASFN and RECOFTC report 'The current status of social forestry in climate change adaptation and mitigation in the ASEAN Region' offers insights on national forestry data and information on forest cover and areas managed by local people in ASEAN countries. These infographics provide snapshots of key data presented in the report in national languages. They summarize the current status of community forestry in Cambodia, Indonesia, Lao PDR, Myanmar, Thailand and Viet Nam and offer recommendations for effective development of policies and management.

The information in the report was collected through desk-based research and reviews of national laws and policies, technical reports and other relevant materials. The information on forest cover and social forestry is based primarily on the latest data from national governments, provided by the members of the ASEAN–Swiss Partnership on Social Forestry and Climate Change Learning Group.
