The project addresses the impacts of unsustainable resource use by local communities and private sector actors by promoting their increased engagement in local-level models for SFM that engage IPLCs and the private sector. The project simultaneously supports the development of two different local-level models (or approaches) for SFM: (i) across the three target landscapes, the project works to develop or strengthen NTFP value chains where IPLCs and community producers make up an important portion of the sector and are key actors in ensuring forest resources are equitably and sustainably managed and (ii) the project supports the expansion of a public-private partnership (PPP) to create a sustainable and socially-responsible value chain for tropical hardwood species in the TRIDOM landscape. SFM and NTFP interventions are applicable across all TRIDOM and TNS landscapes.
