Doi Chang Pa Pae and Mae Pok: Firebreaks built on a village-wide pledge, backed by sensors, cameras and water management systems

The community of Ban Doi Chang Pa Pae in Lamphun Province mobilised every household to build a firebreak more than 30 kilometres long around the forest. They also installed heat and smoke sensors connected to a sprinkler system that volunteers can activate by smartphone from their accommodation, as well as IP cameras used with wind-direction data to forecast a fire’s path 1 hour ahead. Meanwhile, Ban Mae Pok in the same province invested in repairing its upstream water system to support firefighting.

The community of Ban Huai Pla Lod in Tak Province uses a sprinkler system alongside farmland to create 10-20 kilometres of “wet firebreaks” that stop fireballs blown in from the surrounding forest.

Civil society fundraising fills the wildfire budget gap, Jan–Apr B.E. 2569

Government funding for wildfire suppression is often not actually disbursed until May, while the most critical period is January to April. Donations from the Forest Guardian fundraising campaign have therefore been turned into two-way radios and food and welfare support, helping community fire volunteers keep fighting fires for longer.
