Environment and Social Safeguard<\/strong><\/p>

Environmental Safeguard is environmental friendly disease and pest control management, bio-fertilizer application, non-use of fire in weed cleaning, pollution avoidance and biodiversity conservation. Social safeguard is the development of livelihoods, women’s participation and empowerment, and participation of ethnic minorities through open discussion and consent with forest-dependent communities. The social impact is the poverty alleviation of forest-dependent communities, along with the improvement of the living standards of the disadvantaged communities, as well as social and economic development, including small ethnic groups. It also brings gender equality by gender sensitization. The environmental benefits of the SUFAL project include increasing forest cover, assisting in combating the adverse effects of climate change, improving environmental benefits such as freshwater conservation, prevention of air pollution, conservation of wildlife and its habitat, etc. In addition, the overall quality of life and environment of the project area will be improved by conducting all the activities according to the environment and social safeguard policies of the country and the World Bank as per the goals of the SUFAL project.<\/p>
