Wang Chin Forest Park and Mae Yom-Mae Paeng Forest Park cover a combined area of 7,138.82 rais, located in Phrae Province within the Mae Yom Eastern Forest Reserve. These parks represent the first phase of Project 2, with planting initiated in 1978 and the project follows the T-VER-METH-FOR-03 model. The area is home to 345 villagers and is characterized by moderate to steep hills, numerous streams, and a monsoon climate with heavy rainfall from May to October and a dry season from November to March. The average temperature is 32 degrees Celsius. The forests, primarily dry deciduous, were once dominated by teak, rosewood, red hardwood, and Siamese rosewood.

Mae Wang Chin Forest Park and Mae Yom-Mae Paeng Forest Park have adopted a sustainable forest management policy aligned with the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) standards, effective August 1, 2011. This policy encompasses a comprehensive approach to management, addressing economic, social, and environmental aspects:

PROJECT IMPACT AND BENEFITS:

Watersheds protected                                                                                                                                                                                                                                             We have avoided any harmful activities in our project area and constructed check dams to enhance soil fertility since river basin and creeks are very important for biodiversity conservation and natural development

Biodiversity Protection                                                                                                                                                                                                                              Our project prohibit any hunting or activities that can cause negative effect to wildlife and collecting endangered plant species to preserve the natural ecosystem by our patrolling team guarding the area 

Social Aspects 
We have developed an educational programs to foster a sense of environmental stewardship among people and their local youth through sustainability based particularly regarding forest conservation. Furthermore, community support are also our first priority to provide an essential infrastructure such as road repairs and water pumps for the purpose of improving the quality of life for nearby communities.

Economic Aspects
The project has provided jobs during the planting period and also permanent jobs to maintain the forest at its highest standard which we have prioritized the employment of local residents in the community to alleviate and improve their livelihood.

Risk Mitigation 

By Implementing the below strategies in our project area to address any potential threats such as:                                          1. Wildfires Risk    : we have established firebreaks to prevent and detect wildfires
2. Illegal Logging: we have conducted regular forest patrols to deter any illegal activities that can damage ecology
3. Encroachment: we have organized patrol teams to resolving any disputes and monitor the forest boundaries
