Abstract:
The objective of forest conservation programs
in Vietnam is often dual, that is, increasing
forest cover while improving livelihoods
through benefits from participation in
conservation activities like replanting and forest
patrolling. Under this context, understanding
stakeholder preferences over benefit types
and distribution systems is key to designing
benefit sharing mechanisms for Rewards for
Environmental Services (RES) schemes. The
involvement of local people in Viet Nam and
the way they enjoy benefits from RES schemes
could heavily depend on the status of their
forest land-use rights. Local-level land tenure
arrangements could therefore affect the equity
of benefit distribution.
