| dc.description | The focus of NAPA is poverty reduction and rural development. This report covers the environmental conservation and forestry perspective. Forests play a prominent role in the livelihoods of rural people in Myanmar and contribute from 10 to 70 percent of their income. This role of forests, as it is not monetized, is not recognized in the computation of national GDP. The ecological role of the forest in protection of soil, regulating water flow and amelioration of the environment, among other thin gs, is enormous and it needs to be recognized and appreciated. It is on the bedrock of forests, products and services that agriculture, livestock, fisheries, horticulture and rural livelihoods stand supported. | |
