TCP/RAS/4005: Thailand IAS Assessment and Consultation

Objectives: The project, TCP/RAS/4005, aims to support the transformation of agri-food systems in the Asia-Pacific region by integrating biodiversity mainstreaming and traditional knowledge into nature-positive food production. Specifically, it focuses on creating a background paper on the threat of the Silvania molesta invasion in Thale Noi, evaluating current policy gaps, enhancing community-driven landscape management, and promoting biodiversity-friendly practices. The interventions include conducting multi-stakeholder consultations to enrich findings, support local perspectives in national technical guidance, and promote the inclusion of Globally Important Agricultural Heritage Systems (GIAHS) landscapes in Thailand's OECM framework.
