“Sustainable forest management in three certified communities as an alternative to de- REDD5

forestation and forest degradation in the Peruvian Amazon”
Description The objective of this project is to avoid the process of deforestation and degradation of the Amazon forest by land use change in three
Shipibo-Conibo natives communities in Ucayali river basin. The project aims to restore and conserve 24,636.24 ha of Amazon Forest and its main
strategy to reduce the rate of deforestation is by mean of the consolidation of sustainable forest management and Voluntary Forest Certification
and the promotion of agroforestry practices among the inhabitants not engaged in timber harvesting. The project plans strengthen the vigilance
and control over the forest through reinforcing the community monitoring and its knowledge on legal mechanisms to protect their territories and
natural resources. Projects Benefits:

Sustainable Management of Communal Forest of Shiringa (Hevea brasiliensis) as an Alternative REDD6

to Deforestation and Forest Degradation in the Peruvian Amazon
Description: The project aims to restore and conserve 48,046.3 has of Amazon Forests in the basin of San Alejandro River. The main goal of this
project is to promote sustainable forest management through the incorporation of proper use of the “Shiringa” among the families of the native
community of Sinchi Roca, in the province of Padre Abad – Ucayali, and thus is expected the reduction of the deforestation rate caused by agricul-
ture practices.
