Community Forest status in Kyaukpyu Township

23 July 2023

All of the community forests in Kyaukpyu Township were previously used as fish farming dykes.  It could not be implemented due to damage to the fish farming dyke and was abandoned. They applied for permission to establish a community forest (CF) in 2014, hoping to benefit from it. However, according to CEDA’s CF Assessment, some CFUGs are planning to re-implement the fish farming dyke because CF did not receive the anticipated benefits by 2023.
