Description
Community forestry in Nepal: A model for sustainable forest management and local livelihoods. This book explores the experiences and outcomes of community forestry in Nepal over the last four decades, highlighting successes and challenges. Through a combination of literature reviews and original research, it examines how community forestry has evolved to meet new challenges, including climate change, environmental degradation, and social changes due to large-scale labour migration and remittance economies. The book takes a critical approach, recognizing both the benefits and limitations of community forestry in Nepal. It also looks at ways that community forestry might move forward, with lessons from Nepal relevant to community forestry and natural resource management around the world facing similar global pressures and opportunities. By understanding the successes and challenges of community forestry in Nepal, readers can gain insights into effective approaches to sustainable forest management and local livelihoods.
