Project Overview Overview
CEPF Strategic Direction Strategy

Develop a model for sustainable wild harvesting of medicinal plant species in the Northern Highlands Limestone corridor by applying the FairWild Standards that can be replicated elsewhere in Vietnam. Reduce over-exploitation of targeted medicinal plant species by developing and implementing sustainable harvesting and management tools, strengthening market linkages, and assessing the demand for third-party certification of the selected products.

Strategic Direction: 2 Develop innovative, locally led approaches to site-based conservation at 28 key biodiversity areas
