Sc.) - Asian Institute of Technology, 2012  aThis study was conducted with the objective finding sustainable approach of reliving pressure to  Xuan  Nha  Nature  Reserve  and  strengthening  the  livelihood  of  dependent  people.  LIFE(livelihood, income, forest condition, and equity)indicators developed by CIFOR-RRI(Center for  International  Forestry  Research-Resource  Rights  Initiative)were  used  as  conceptual framework for studying livelihood of forest dependent people from 3 sub areas namely buffer area, ecological restoration area and strictly protected areaand the outcomeof their activities with relevance tothe Reserve.Currently, community{u201F}s activities are creating threats to forest area,  forest  land  degradation  and  illegal  resources  harvesting.Fruit  orchard,  bee  keeping  and local  pig  farming  were  studied or  their  potential role  in  for  reducing  pressure  on  the  Reserve and  compatibility  with  the  current  livelihood  assets  of  the  people. Fruit  orchard  and  bee keeping  were  recommended  for  buffer  area  since  there  are  more  convenient  assets  such  as roads, market,and human knowledge. Fruit orchard and local pig farming were suggested for ERA and SPA to solve the problem of land degradation and maintain traditional habit of local community. This  study  also  focused  on  analyzing  policies  that  have  important  role  onsocioeconomic development  and  forest  management.  Advocacy  Coalition  Framework  (ACF)  was  used  as basic  framework  for  analyzing.  Economic  coalition,  Environmental  coalition,  and  Social concern  coalition  are  the  major  coalitions  in  this  area.  The  conflict  ofbelief  system  among these  coalitions  is  a  crucial  factor  affecting  the  success  of  policy.The  support  for  livelihood practices and improvement of community{u201F}s awareness on forest protection is needed in all sub-areas.In  ERA  and  SPA,  it  is  essential  to  make  the  regulation  on  resource  use.  In  BA, improvement of local awareness on using alternative materials to reduce pressure on timber is necessary. 0aForest managementzVietnamzXuan Nha 0aRestoration ecologyzVietnamzXuan Nha 0aNatural resourceszVietnamzXuan Nha1 aShivakoti, Ganesh P.,eChairperson1 aJourdain, Damien,eExamination Committee 1 aGrunbuhel, Clemens,eExamination Committee 2 aFord Foundation,eScholarship Donor2 aHUAF,eScholarship donor2 aHAU,eScholarship donor2 aAsian Institute of Technology Fellowship,eScholarship donor2 aAsian Institute of Technology.tThesis ;vno.
