Myanmar community forest assessment report_recoftc_2022

Establishment of Community Forestry (CF) was started in the Ayeyarwaddy delta where mangroves mainly occur in Myanmar right after Community Forestry Instructions (CFIs) was issued by the Forest Department in 1995. The study on certified mangrove CFs mainly focused in four townships; Pyarpon, Labutta and Bogale of Ayeyarwaddy and Kungyangon of Yangon Region.

This study examined the impact of the certified mangrove forests through comparing the conditions before and after CF certification by spatial analysis and socio-economic survey. In this assessment, there are two main portions; spatial analysis done by the National University of Singapore – NUS, and socio economic survey/ ground truth/ collecting coordinate points of CF boundary carried out by RECOFTC Myanmar.
