Illegal logging and unsustainable land management practices are the biggest challenges to achieve a sustainable development. Economic demands and lack of knowledge of land management have led people to behave instantaneously and destructively.

Through a qualitative method using semi-structured interviews, this study found multiple factors contributed to the transformation including people’s awareness of the importance of ecosystem sustainability, the increased of knowledge and capacity of the community of eco-friendly agricultural practices, and intervention of both government and non-governmental organization in providing landscape-based land management models and land use schemes for community in forest area. The livelihoods that were transformed into the more landscape-based and ecofriendly ways including illegal logging to organic farming and agroforestry practices, and ordinary farming to non-pesticides agricultural practices.
