| The Forests, Trees and People Programme (FTPP) network administers the CFM-JFM list, which has been set up to discuss issues related to forest management and ownership. The first case for discussion is the proposed Joint Venture project in Bara forest Nepal. Background information and initial discussion can be viewed here. Through these discussions, the organizers hope to:
- gain a clearer understanding of the conflicting perspectives and expectations of the project;
- explore the underlying assumptions informing these different perspectives;
- look for alternative approaches that will allow the various stakeholders to play complementary roles in contributing to sustainable forest management in Nepal.
The FTPP is a community forestry initiative which is working towards enabling the people who live in and around forests to manage their natural resources locally and sustainably. FTPP networking activities are jointly run by the Department of Rural Development Studies, Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences (SLU), Sweden; the Community Forestry Unit, Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), Italy; and regional programme facilitators in Asia, Africa, Latin and North America. More information can be obtained from the FTPP main web site.This list is moderated, owned and/or managed by:
