Four fields of intervention contribute to reach the purpose: (1) strengthening community organisations to participate in reconstruction program, in land use planning in particular; (2) rebuilding of livelihoods of Tsunami impacted and forest dependent communities; (3) lobbying for environmental friendly material for home reconstruction and (4) mainstreaming environmental concerns into land use planning. The target groups are the villagers of Tsunami impacted villages that have an impact on forest resources.
