With a long-term, landscape-based and inclusive approach to supporting local communities, RECOFTC Thailand has been laying the groundwork and enhancing the capacity for community forestry in the country since 1987.

Working with government, civil society, community, academia, private sector and other stakeholders, we help strengthen the implementation of sustainable landscape management in Thailand. Our focus is on developing capacities and nature-based solutions to address climate change and biodiversity loss and promote forest governance.
