Scaling Up Participatory Sustainable Forest Management Program, SUFORD-SU

General

(The funding amount only reflects the support from Finland= all of Finland's funding, as, if widely understood, it could be included in the support of land tenure) The major focus – and added value - of the Lao PDR Forest Investment Plan (Lao FIP) is to promote participatory sustainable forest management (PSFM) of all types of forests, with a major emphasis on promoting the capacities of villagers and other grassroots managers. SUFORD-SU is the fourth in a series of projects promoting participatory sustainable forest management. The current project covers 13 provinces, 41 of the country’s 51 PFAs, comprising 2.3 million ha and more than 1000 villages. The current project is also piloting an approach to forest landscape management in four provinces, and piloting village forestry in at least 30 villages in this area. It is supporting work on payment for environmental services (PES) and reducing emissions from deforestation and forest degradation (REDD+). Forest and wildlife law enforcement activities continued to be supported, as well as work on key relevant policy, legislative, and regulatory issues. The project also disseminates information on project issues, and aims to raise awareness regarding climate change and REDD+. SUFORD-SU is not only developing its own monitoring and evaluation systems for the project, but working to develop and strengthen government monitoring, reporting, evaluation, and analysis capabilities. A PFA Monitoring System (PFAMS) will be built, to complement other ongoing work such as the National Forest Information System (NFIS) under development.

Unlocking Forest Finance - Mobilisation of private sector capital to reduce deforestation through Public/Priva

Smallholder Market-led Project (SMLP)

General

The purpose of the project is to enhance food and nutrition security and incomes among smallholder producer families of 10,355 households through diversified agricultural production and market linkages in the rain-fed Middleveld and Lowveld areas of the Lubombo and Shiselweni regions. On land and natural resource governance, the Chief's Letter of Consent will be used as means to transform communal grazing land in land for commercial agriculture and as a means to give specific groups of smallholders the usufruct of such land in return for guarantees on sustainable use. In parallel to the CDC-led appraisals, the Project will prepare GIS base maps recording land use and land resources from available remote sensing information and other existing secondary sources.

Smallholder Dairy Commercialization Programme (SDCP)

General

The programme goal is to foster market-driven development of Kenya's informal dairy industry, working with poor smallholder dairy producers and traders to strengthen their capacity to respond to market opportunities.

The programme will benefit 24,000 households in the areas of Bungoma, Trans Nzoia, Kakamega, Uasin Gishu, Nandi, Nakuru, Nyamira, Kisii and Bomet. On land and natural resource governance, the programme provides support for community mobilization and capacity building for a participatory analysis and mapping with dairy groups and land access for the groups and their communities.
