DocumentOther documentType classification of damaged forest in the Island Areas, west coast of Korea and analysis on the charaterisitics of restoration sites
XV World Forestry Congress, 2-6 May 2022
2022Also available in:
No results found.The study aims to produce basic data which can be used in establishing a forest restoration plan in the island areas of the west coast of Korea. First, the damaged type of island area was determined based on the GIS data, and a field study was carried out on 110 of the extracted damaged areas for classified type of forest restoration sites with the Forest Restoration Guidelines of the Korea Forest Service. As a result of the analysis, the total number of islands on the west coast of Korea was 1,977 (254,258 ha), with 323 (248,258 ha) of manned islands and 1,654 (5,871 ha) of uninhabited islands. 11 damage types (590 locations) were extracted through video reading of 2,774 suspected deforestation cases (5,431 ha). The field survey was conducted on 110 locations on 44 islands which were reclassified into 14 damage types. Among the types of forest restoration target sites, the types of damage (12 places) that require restoration of the underlying environment are classified into three categories: facility sites, soil and stone ground, and landslide-damaged sites. it was found to be a man-made damages concentrated in private land with high development pressure, especially in Incheon and Jeollanam-do province by region. Vegetation restoration included 9 different types of damage (96 sites) and it was analyzed that Incheon Metropolitan City and Chungcheongnam-do province have a high rate of grassland and livestock grazing land and Jeollabuk-do province with high distribution of grassland and non-stocked forest land. And Jeollanam-do province had 8 types of damage, relatively more various types of damage confirmed compared to other areas. Habitat and species restoration are required for bird colonies and coastal wetland types (one site, respectively). Plants are dying due to fishery and neglected household waste and bird excrement, therefore it shall be considered from the habitat restoration point of view. The research results are expected to be used in extracting target sites for forest restoration plan and a criteria to find the target sites suitable for the characteristics of damaged areas.

ArticleJournal articleKorea-Indonesia peatland restoration cooperation: Challenges and opportunities to recover degraded peatland ecosystem in Londerang peat protected forest
XV World Forestry Congress, 2-6 May 2022

No results found.Indonesia harbors around 24 million hectares of peatland or approximately 23% of the world’s tropical peat ecosystem. Some of them can be found in Londerang Peat Protected Forest that belongs to Jambi Province which has suffered from the repeated forest and land fires that were recorded both in 2015 and 2019. Several concerns have arisen from this disaster, including the degradation of the peatland ecosystem and wide-ranging socio-economic issues at the regional, national, and international level, and raising concerns from the global society. In response to these issues and to strengthen the international cooperation between the Government of the Republic of Korea and the Republic of Indonesia, both parties established joint cooperation titled “Restoration of Burnt Peatland in Jambi”. The project was carried out through several activities. To maintain the groundwater table, the hydrological function is restored by constructing canal blocking and water table monitoring system. Revegetation is carried out by planting native peatland species with a high survival rate. Ten villages were revitalized in order to improve their socio-economic welfare by encouraging active participation from local communities. In addition, a peatland education center was built to raise public awareness about the significance of the peatland ecosystem. This paper aims to identify the challenges and opportunities of the Korea-Indonesia peatland restoration project in Jambi province. Qualitative descriptive approach was used along with literature study. The result showed that active participation and effective communication between all stakeholders played a huge role in the successful implementation of international forestry cooperation.

ArticleJournal articleLessons learned from the ASEAN-Korea green partnership in the restoration and sustainable management of degraded forest ecosystems for the Philippines
XV World Forestry Congress, 2-6 May 2022
2022Also available in:
No results found.This paper presents the lessons learned from the Republic of Korea financed ASEAN-KOREA Environmental Cooperation Project (AKECOP) about two decades of experience in creative collaboration in research and human resource development in the restoration and sustainable management of degraded forest ecosystems in the ASEAN region. The Philippines and nine other participating ASEAN member states (AMS) have learned valuable lessons from the various innovative collaboration strategies employed by the Project. Participatory project management was adopted to ensure project relevance, quality, reliability and equitability and maximum impact. Research and development in-country and cross-cultural collaborative modes were tried and found to be effective strategies in enhancing research outputs and in facilitating research process learning experiences. Cross country exchange visits to locally successful restoration sites were found to be effective schemes for information exchange and technology transfer. And needs-oriented short training programs and graduate studies at the MSc and PhD level were effective strategies in building a pool of high- level expertise in forest restoration and SFM. However, the most valuable lesson from the Project's experience in creative collaboration is that SUCCESS in smaller collaborative initiatives such as AKECO P can inspire the creation of larger institutional partnerships such as Asian Forest Cooperation Organization (AFoCO). As a way forward, the participating AMS have arrived at a consensus that AKECOP should continue to serve as a platform for regional collaboration in SFM considering its notable part achievements. In line with the ASEAN "GREEN VISION" and its journey towards regional integration, AKECOP is envisaged to re-align its innovative strategies to the changing needs and challenges in the sustainable management of a healthy and productive forest ecosystems in a new world order threatened by the scourge of the COVID 19 crisis.

Book (stand-alone)General interest book地理标志食品的营养与健康潜力 2022
Also available in:
在很多重要文件中,传统食品、饮食和粮食体系在大众营养状况中所发挥的重要作用得到了认可。社会经济、生物多样性、自然资源可利用性及地理标志的使用都会影响营养和饮食,但关于前三项的研究比最后一项要多得多。在促进健康饮食和遏制非传染性疾病方面,地理标志食品的潜力值得探索。本书共有五个案例,研究了五种已注册的地理标志食品的营养潜力。 本书探讨了生产过程和最终产品营养成分之间的关系。事实上,这些食品的营养特性在很大程度上可以归因于它们独特的成分和生产过程,与其地理来源密切相关。对营养成分的分析既需要考虑普通的营养素,还要考虑生物活性化合物,后者通常不会出现在营养成分表中。 本书也探究了一些与个案研究对象相似但不一定认证了地理标志的食品。在个案研究后,本书第三部分简要探讨了三个专题:规范地理标志食品以保持和提高营养质量、地理标志食品在健康饮食中的作用以及食品成分测定。第四部分讨论了本书的局限性,并提出了以地理标志食品促进健康饮食的建议。很多受地理标志保护的传统食品是发酵食品,因此,附录涉及了益生菌、益生元和肠道菌群。 -
