Background

With financial support from SIG, WWF is carrying out activities aimed at improving forest protection and connectivity in three important areas: the Dawna-Tenasserim Landscape, Thap Lan National Park, and the Songkhram River Watershed. These areas have been selected because they support a high degree of biological diversity, are important for water quality and food security, and require conservation action.

Scope of Work

The project focuses on securing corridors essential to forest connectivity and integrity, strengthening existing conservation lands, and designating new protected areas. Local communities are engaged in the design, implementation, and monitoring of the project activities. The project involves a combination of restoration activities, habitat protection, and responsible land-management practices (such as improved community forestry).
