Overview
Background
Dr Sang Phan work combines research in forest ecology and management with significant experience as a practitioner in project implementation and a community development worker. Dr. Phan’s expertise includes carbon sequestration in terrestrial and coastal ecosystems (such as mangrove forests), sustainable forestry practices, and the valuation of ecosystem services. He translates this expertise into practical outcomes by leading forest restoration programs, designing climate change mitigation projects such as REDD+ and agroforestry carbon initiatives, and improving environmental monitoring techniques. A key aspect of his approach involves working directly with local communities and stakeholders, coordinating development projects, and delivering targeted training to build local capacity for sustainable land management and livelihood enhancement.
