The study looked at how a community in Chiang Mai manages its natural resources and environment. They found that the community works together like a family, has rules and traditions, and uses local knowledge to support their economy. The community has gone through different stages of development and adaptation to protect their ecosystem. They have faced challenges from damage to their environment but are working with the government to restore and conserve their forests. The community is learning how to benefit from biodiversity while still protecting their livelihoods and environment. The Natural Resources and Environmental fund helps them maintain a good quality of life.
