Abstract
This report describes a survey of livelihoods and forest use amongst an indigenous ethnic group (the
Phnong) conducted during February-August 2002 in southern Mondulkiri Province, Cambodia. The
area is inhabited by many small Phnong communities, is experiencing high immigration by ethnic
Khmer people near its borders and is also included in a large commercial logging concession held by
Samling International. In 2002 the area was also declared a special Biodiversity Conservation Area by
Ministerial Decree and has become the target for active conservation efforts. The current study
provides some of the information necessary to find effective compromises between these differing land
and resource uses.
