from 2018-2024. The project aims to establish and develop a public-private-producer partnership (4P) for forest landscape conservation and restoration in one of Lam Dong’s most important forested landscapes - the Lang Biang Biosphere Reserve comprised of Bi
Doup Nui Ba National Park and surrounding agricultural land in Lac Duong District.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

communities, ii) working with coffee-buying companies to improve monitoring and traceability systems to prevent deforestation in supply chains; and iii) investing in (mainly ethnic minority) smallholder farmers to promote climate smart, sustainable coffee
production techniques leading to improved coffee quality and prices, whilst also promoting landscape restoration through mixed agroforestry systems and alternative livelihoods.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:9.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family:"Verdana",sans-serif">Since its inception in 2018, the project has supported over 3,355 farmers in the district through the provision of more than half of million coffee and tree seedlings,
training of the farmers in better practices, formation of farmer groups, and building connections between these farmers and coffee companies in inclusive value chain models. These activities allow farmers to rejuvenate coffee farms and introduce multi-purpose
tree species (macadamia and persimmon) and improve the quality of their coffee and their marketing power. This results in diversifying their incomes an creating economic and climatic resilience.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

relates to the ability to track and trace along the supply chain. While tracking allows the supply-chain stakeholders to follow the downstream path of a product, tracing enables identification of the origins and characteristics of the product when following
an upstream path in the supply chain.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
