Action Plans to Prevent and Control Deforestation
(Aichi Target #5, National Target #12)
By: Chheang Dany, Deputy Director Department of Wild life and Biodiversity, Forestry Administration, Cambodia
Capacity building Workshop for Southeast Asia on Ecosystem Conservation and Restoration to support
achievement of the Aichi Biodiversity Targets
Jambi, Indonesia, 28 April to 2 May 2014
IntroductionCambodia Is part of Indo-Burma Biodiversity Hotspot of 25 Global hotspots, it have the largest remaining extensive intact block of a unique landscape of exceptional global importance for biodiversity conservation, habitats for thousand species of wildlife species and climate change mitigation, and one of nine importance of Biodiversity Corridor Conservation in Greater Mekong Sub-region.

Changes in percentages of forest types in
Cambodia, 2002 - 2010
Changes in forest cover in Cambodia, 1965 - 2010
Annual deforestation rate: 0.34% (1965-2006) and 0.5% (2002-2010)
Challenges� Limited understanding of the Values of Natural
Forest function and It services
� Climate change will affect forest based livelihoods
� Lack of Cross Sectoral Forest land-use planning
� Illegal activities and weak collaboration
� Forest conversion and degradation, agriculture expansion
� Limited capacity, under staffing and insufficient knowledge for effectively managing Natural Forest
� Suitability of management models
� Under funding for Managing Natural Forests14
I. Millennium Development Goal: maintaining good forest cover 60% by 2015, and reduce a level of fuel wood dependency from 97% to 52% of total population by 2015.
II. Rectangle Strategy of RGC: ensure environmental sustainability through sustainable management of natural resources
III. National Strategic Development Plan
IV. National Forest Policy Statement
V. Forestry Law and relevant regulations
VI. National Forest Programme
VII. Green Growth Policy

Legal Frameworks
1. National Forest Demarcation, Classification and Registration
2. Forest Resource Management and Conservation
3. Forest Law Enforcement and Governance4. Community Forestry5. Capacity Building and Research Development
6. Sustainable Forest Financing
NFP Main Programs for 2010-2029
• Maintain national forest cover up to 60% of the total country area
• A minimum of 50% of processed wood for export certified.• Annual sustainable net revenue from the forest of 125
million USD. • Annual average net income from carbon sequestration of
25 million USD.• Demarcation of a total 120,000 km of forest borders by
2029, primarily completed during 2020-2029.• Increasing Protected Forests areas up to 3 mil. Ha • 500,000 ha of high value commercial plantation
established and managed by private stakeholders. • 1,000 community forestry groups fully recognized through
community forestry agreements.
NFP’s Key Indicators
Biodiversity Targets Indicators for Measuring ProgressProgress
(Traffic Lights)
Target 12 (Aichi Target 5): By 2020, the rate of natural habitat loss will have reduced, and restoration of natural habitat and wildlife corridors will have improved.
• Plan of habitat loss prevention, habitat and important ecology restoration.
• Areas and size of habitat restored and protected.
• Number of rangers and operational equipment and facilities.
• Assessment report on current rate of habitat loss and important ecosystem degradation.

Habitat Restoration and Reforestation
More than 100 plants nurseries, more than 15 mil. pl ant seedling been producing and planting annually
2. Inequality • Problems of Natural/Biodiversity
Resources policy implementation mistrust • Natural/Biodiversity Resources
management could be effective in short-term
• Groundless Natural/Biodiversity Resources policy implementation
• Forestland, wetland and other important habitats could be easily converted to other land use types (agriculture , economic concession etc.)
4. Sustainable • Rural poverty alleviation • Sustainable utilization and management
Natural/Biodiversity Resources • Forestland, wetland and other important
habitats is respected and forest plantation and habitat restoration can be increased
• Modality well managed of Natural/Biodiversity Resources
• Governance on Natural/Biodiversity Resources will be included and respected
1. Business As Usual • Decreasing Natural/Biodiversity
Resources • Ineffective planning and management of
Natural/Biodiversity Resources
3. Unsustainable • Fragile Land Tenure & Forestland
Grabbing continuous conflicts in forestland ownership
• Forest development will not be possible (because forest development needs long term investment)
