The Asian Development Bank (ADB) is collaborating with the government and other beneficiaries to promote sustainable forest management in Sri Lanka. The seven-year project includes planning, management and awareness campaigns involving all stakeholders to ensure agreement over forest boundaries and sustainable management of forest reserves. “The project will also improve the technical know-how to establish the best conservation and resource management practices among the Forest Department officers,” a spokesman for the Department said. At present Sri Lanka has 23% forests cover and a high level of diversity including some of the world’s most rare plant species.
