The initiative aims to bolster climate change resilience through the sustainable management of natural forests and certified plantations. Concurrently, it will establish and manage a system to monitor reserves and harvest rattan, guaranteeing sustainable practices. Additionally, it will educate individuals on production and commerce within the sustainable rattan supply chain.

Furthermore, the project implements a pilot "Innovation Fund" designed to foster initiatives that enhance livelihoods, ecosystem services, and climate change resilience. It aims to disseminate and amplify knowledge and experiences derived from the project's endeavors. Additionally, it tests programs and tools that advocate and bolster natural solutions, contributing to both conservation and the betterment of livelihoods.

Also through this project, promoting sustainable forest product supply chains, empowering communities in production management and development, improving forest resilience and biodiversity, sharing knowledge and experience to replicate good ideas and models will bring high efficiency, helping people stabilize their lives and protect forests sustainably, especially ethnic minorities in mountainous districts of Quang Tri.
