摘要

The escalating threat of forest fires due to climate change necessitates robust policies for advancing forest fire management practices and implementing adaptation strategies. This paper examines current policies and explores potential frameworks to enhance resilience in the face of increasing fire risks. It delves into strategies for prevention, early detection, rapid response, and recovery measures, emphasizing the integration of climate change adaptation into forest management practices. The analysis considers international best practices, technological innovations, and community engagement approaches to develop a comprehensive policy framework for effective forest fire management. Forests are vital ecosystems globally, supporting millions of people and playing a crucial role in biodiversity preservation and climate regulation. However, the integrity and resilience of these ecosystems are under serious threat from the increasing frequency and severity of forest fires, impacting the environment, biodiversity, economy, and society. Factors contributing to this trend include climate change, land-use changes, invasive species, and human activities. Effective forest fire management is essential to mitigate these destructive impacts, with integrating traditional acquaintance into modern strategies proving beneficial, especially in areas with indigenous populations.
