Name Indigenous response to depletion in natural resources: A study of two Stieng villages in Snoul district, Kratie province
Description

This ADI research seeks to trace the depletion of natural resources in two indigenous Stieng villages in Snoul District of Kratie province and to document the responses that have emerged as a result. This includes an assessment of land tenure and land productivity, livelihood strategies, and market participation. The study situates the historical trends in the two villages within a broader discussion of forest decline in Cambodia, Kratie province, and Snoul district. The experiences of Mil and Thmar Hal Veal villages reveal a downward turn in the quality of their resource bases and the sufficiency of their natural resources. At the same time, villagers in both areas remained dependent on land and forest resources for their subsistence. To some extent, Mil village, located within the Snoul Wildlife Sanctuary, responded more creatively to the challenge of resource management.
