Project on Community Based Resource Management at Bokor National Park is funded by US Blue Moon Fund. The goal of this project is to reduce deforestation at Bokor National Park in Cambodia, which is occurring due to the demand for wood as fuel. This will be achieved by the introduction of biogas production plants and fuel efficient stoves. Because 80% of rural Cambodians use wood as their only source of fuel, the introduction of these energy saving approaches should have a positive impact on the amount of wood that the community needs for its cooking and heating purposes. The objective of the activities recommended below are to identify which mechanisms provide the most energy saving benefits among a subset of the park, on a demonstration basis, so that the project can eventually be expanded to cover a much larger territory.

Cooperated with WildAid, SNISD will conduct the construction of biogas digesters at Bokor National Park and training for local people.
