บทคัดย่อ (EN): Fire is used in shifting agriculture in Southeast Asia but uncontrolled fire is one of the the greatest risks to highland ecosystems. This is a case study from the Thai-Danish Upper Nan Watershed Management Project (1996-2003) where processes were developed to improve community and government cooperation for sustainable highland natural resource management including a reduction of 50% in the project area burnt. The executing agency was the Royal Forest Department (RFD) and the Local Administration a cooperating Thai agency. The project area of 1007 sq. km. was an important watershed of the Nan river which provides irrigation water for the Central Plains. There were 45 villages of 6 ethnic groups. About 60% of the population living in two National Forest Reserves had no legal land tenure. The project appraoch combined livelihood enhancement with ecosystem rehabilitation implement by 15 Community Coordinators and the officers and staff of 6 Watershed Managment units of RFD.The 1997 baseline survey, when 5% of the project area was burnt, found that 47% of the villages had their own rules prohibiting fires spreading from swiddens to forest areas, and 31% had fines from varying from 1,000 to 5,000 baht for farmers not making a firebreak around a swidden before burning. Fire management plans were prepared for the 1998 fire season with community videos and discussion groups on the environmental damage from fires, village volunteers trained and equipped and firebreaks made. However in 1998 the area burnt increased from 5% to 21%. Fires spread from other villages so the village fines on uncontrolled fires could not be enforced. In order to solve this problem seven Village Watershed Networks (VWN) of 6 to 8 villages were formed to resolve the conflicts from fire damages. After several meetings the VWN and RFD agreed on boundaries for fire management to cover 100% of the project area. Following the formation of the VWN and agreement on fire management boundaries and rules the area burnt decreased in each of the following four years from 21% to less than 3%. This enabled the immediate project objective of reforestation and natural forest regeneration on 32% of the area to be achieved.
