Benefits to LC include fostering economic value for local/traditional livelihoods to support biodiversity cultural preservation, mitigating human-wildlife conflicts, and conservation and ecosystem functioning and reduce deforestation. developing sustainable alternative livelihoods based on non-timber WK – one of the few provinces implementing KEEs – launched it in forest products (NTFP).
