About this project

The project aims to create a proactive and resilient approach to forest fire management by focusing on enhancing community involvement and local capacity.

Expected results of the project:1. Increased capacity of forest fire protection services in the most vulnerable regions of the country to prevent, detect and manage forest fires. 2. Strengthened fire prevention and extinguishing capabilities to contribute to sustaining livelihoods of communities residing near forested areas. 3. Improved awareness level of local population about the importance of timely reporting of fires and prompt action to prevent escalation. 4.
