The Community Action Plan (CAP) for Maing Naung village focuses on the conservation of the Naung Taw and Naung Loam wetlands in the Upper Chindwin Basin, Myanmar. The plan addresses high-level threats such as mining, illegal fishing (electric shock and poisoning), and deforestation through a three-pronged approach: wetland habitat conservation, the promotion of sustainable livelihoods, and capacity building via Communication, Education, Participation and Public Awareness (CEPA) programs. Implementation is led by a Village Working Committee (VWC) with support from the Stockholm Environment Institute and other partners, utilizing a monitoring framework to track biodiversity, water quality, and socioeconomic impacts.
