This publication considers the trade-offs between poverty reduction and environmental protection, and proposes a framework for integrating forest management with rural development in a sustainable way. Overall, the report suggests that poverty alleviation and environmental conservation are not inherently opposed to one another, with outcomes depending on the specific local conditions and policies adopted. It proposes a typology for three kinds of forests, each facing different kinds of environmental pressures and offering different opportunities for growth and poverty alleviation, and considers options for 'win-win' policies.

Academic Paper from the year 2019 in the subject Sociology - Economy and Industry, grade: 1, , course: land admnstration, language: Geez, abstract: African countries need increased investment to support poverty alleviation and infrastructure development. With high dependence on land and forest resource for subsistence, there is also a growing threat of widespread natural resource degradation. Accordingly, efforts to mitigate climate change through carbon sequestration projects can bring in money both to regenerate natural resource and raise local incomes.However, little is known about the status of existing carbon sequestration projects in Africa.

The second volume of this series, Integrating Ecology into Global Poverty Reduction Efforts: Opportunities and solutions, builds upon the first volume, Integrating Ecology into Global Poverty Reduction Efforts: The ecological dimensions to poverty, by exploring the way in which ecological science and tools can be applied to address major development challenges associated with rural poverty. In volume 2, we explore how ecological principles and practices can be integrated, conceptually and practically, into social, economic, and political norms and processes to positively influence poverty and the environment upon which humans depend. Specifically, these chapters explore how ecological science, approaches and considerations can be leveraged to enhance the positive impacts of education, gender relations, demographics, markets and governance on poverty reduction. As the final chapter on “The future and evolving role of ecological science” points out, sustainable development must be build upon an ecological foundation if it is to be realized. The chapters in this volume illustrate how traditional paradigms and forces guiding development can be steered along more sustainable trajectories by utilizing ecological science to inform project planning, policy development, market development and decision making.

"Reducing Emissions from Deforestation and Forest Degradation (REDD+) has emerged as a climate change mitigation mechanism as forest loss and degradation is the second highest anthropogenic source of greenhouse gas emissions. Local and indigenous people who manage forests are foci for REDD+ projects as such groups hold tenure to over 10% of global forests. REDD+ initiatives provide both opportunities and risks to local communities. On the one hand, they could limit the access and use rights of forest dwellers, restricting their livelihoods, but on the other hand they could offer an opportunity to combine the agendas of forest conservation and rural development, allowing for an increased flow of resources to marginalized communities, and delivering co-benefits such as poverty reduction and improved livelihoods. Although REDD+ projects and demonstration activities have proliferated in the last five years there is little literature examining if these initiatives succeed with regard to their carbon outcomes (emission reduction and carbon sequestration), and if they respect the knowledge and rights of forest-dependent people residing in the communities hosting REDD+ projects. This thesis fills this gap by conducting comprehensive research using a mixture of qualitative and quantitative research methodologies. The overarching question this research seeks to answer is how local communities can reduce emissions from deforestation, benefiting from carbon offset trading while improving local livelihoods. By analysing a four-year-old, reforestation-based carbon-offset project on the collective lands of the indigenous Ipetí-Emberá, the study provides data on early mortality, tree growth and carbon sequestration capacity of 29 species that are commonly used by small farming households in Latin America and elsewhere, and shows that agroforestry systems could provide forest peoples with an entry point to REDD+ without restricting their livelihoods. Furthermore, by analyzing literature from rural development and sustainable forest management, I explore the factors that should be considered when implementing REDD+ and provide a framework of best practices and indicators that could be used by stakeholders to improve REDD+ project design, monitoring, and evaluation. Finally, the thesis presents the results of an in-depth case study that, in four cycles of collaborative action research (2002-2013), documented the challenges and lessons learned in implementation of a REDD+ project in the collective lands of the indigenous Ipetí-Emberá community. Though economic incentives for participants and the equitable distribution of benefits remain important to project participants, this study highlights that the importance of adapting REDD+ strategies to best suit community needs, and REDD+'s potential as a conflict resolution mechanism for tenure issues deserve more recognition as alternative factors that can contribute to meaningful participation in REDD+." --

Poverty, hunger and demand for agricultural land have driven local communities to overexploit forest resources throughout Ethiopia. Forests surrounding the township of Humbo were largely destroyed by the late 1960s. In 2004, World Vision Australia and World Vision Ethiopia identified forestry-based carbon sequestration as a potential means to stimulate community development while engaging in environmental restoration. After two years of consultation, planning and negotiations, the Humbo Community-based Natural Regeneration Project began implementation -- the Ethiopian organization's first carbon sequestration initiative. The Humbo Project assists communities affected by environmental degradation including loss of biodiversity, soil erosion and flooding with an opportunity to benefit from carbon markets while reducing poverty and restoring the local agroecosystem. Involving the regeneration of 2,728 ha of degraded native forests, it brings social, economic and ecological benefits -- facilitating adaptation to a changing climate and generating temporary certified emissions reductions (tCERs) under the Clean Development Mechanism. A key feature of the project has been facilitating communities to embrace new techniques and take responsibility for large-scale environmental change, most importantly involving Farmer Managed Natural Regeneration (FMNR). This technique is low-cost, replicable, and provides direct benefits within a short time. Communities were able to harvest fodder and firewood within a year of project initiation and wild fruits and other non-timber forest products within three years. Farmers are using agroforestry for both environmental restoration and income generation. Establishment of user rights and local cooperatives has generated community ownership and enthusiasm for this project -- empowering the community to more sustainably manage their communal lands.
