| Project Name: | Forest livelihoods and Rights for Sustainable natural resource management (FOREST) |
| Project Description: |
Forest livelihoods and Rights for Sustainable natural resource management (FOREST) addresses inequitable distribution of benefits from forest resources in the high forest zones of Ghana. The project aims to improve forest fringe communities' ability to gain access to, control over and equity in sharing forest products and forest management in Ghana. FOREST interventions include: 1) facilitation to develop effective systems for community-based natural resources management in which forest fringe communities make
decisions and take responsibility for sustainable management of forest resources; 2) establishment of local, district and regional communication channels and coordinating systems through Forest Forums; and 3) facilitation to develop effective NGO coordination, networking and advocacy for pro-poor policy reforms and a national civil society voice in the forest sector. |
