| Abstract: |
| The poverty and environment project (PEP) funded by UNDP and DFID was started in February 2007 by the World Agroforestry Center (ICRAF) and its collaborators. PART 1 of the project provides a synthesis of available information and gaps in information and understanding of P-E linkage (PELs) issues and the administrative level while PART 2 examines how the poor themselves view PELs and the messages they would like to convey to the administrative level. PART 3 provides detailed information and lessons learnt from 10 PELs case studies. PART 4 collates all information from PARTS 1-3 and develops suitable policy – investment models that can be piloted in the two target provinces, Ha Tinh representing for the poor rural upland context and Ha Tay representing for poor peri- urban context and replicated elsewhere. Lessons learnt from Part I, Part II and Part III clearly show that (i) in Ha Tinh: (a) Biogas in connection with livestock model is important for the poor and (b) Participatory is needed in planning both land and water uses in order to sustain natural resources and to contribute to poverty reduction; (ii) in Ha Tay - Handicraft production and livestock raising contribute both environmental and economic challenges. Therefore, 4 proposed models for Ha Tinh including (1) Biogas, livestock and the poor; (2) Participatory Forest Land Use planning and Participatory water use planning; (3) Migration and poverty and (4) RUPES. Two proposed models for Ha Tay are (1) EIA and SEA, water treatment in the handicraft village and (2) Ecotourism and migration. During six months in 2008, ICRAF and its consultants will work closely with the provincial leaders to plan this policy investment models with support from Central Project Management Unit at the Ministry of Natural Resources and Environment (MONRE) of Vietnam. |
