This publication comprises two parts:
PART 1: Linking Poverty Reduction with Forest Conservation: a brief review of policies and programmes in Vietnam.
PART 2: Cultivating Non-Timber Forest Products for Secure Livelihoods: a case study of the impacts of NTFP domestication and agro-forestry on poverty reduction and livelihood improvement in Vietnam.

Both studies were conducted as a learning exercise and the findings are being used to improve IUCN's approach to addressing livelihood issues.
