To enhance sustainable forest management practices across the Greater Central Asia region, improve forestry policy and governance, and foster international cooperation under the “Belt and Road Initiative” and the China-Mongolia-Russia economic framework.

Develop integrated research on forestry legislation, governance, and forest management status in the target economies.

Propose international forestry cooperation mechanisms.

Summarize best practices for sustainable forest development and technical support among forest businesses.

Six detailed reports on forest development and management best practices for each target economy, published in both English and Chinese.

Publications in Chinese journals.

Two technical meetings to discuss findings and strategies.

One comprehensive project financial report.

The project successfully gathered extensive data and insights into the forest status and management practices across the Greater Central Asia region, impacting forest management strategies and policy formulation:

 1. Enhanced Understanding of Forest Management: The reports provided a comprehensive overview of the current state of forests, contributing to economic development and outlining forestry policies and legislation across the involved economies.

 2. Policy Development Support: The findings aided policymakers in understanding the challenges and opportunities in forest management, helping to craft policies that foster sustainable forest use and conservation.

 3. International Cooperation: Under the framework of international economic partnerships, the project proposed mechanisms for enhanced forestry cooperation, which are crucial for addressing regional environmental challenges such as desertification and climate change.

 4. Best Practices and Strategic Planning: By summarizing best practices in areas such as desertification control, forest fire prevention, and biodiversity conservation, the project provided a valuable resource for future forest management planning and execution.
