| description | Participatory Forest Management (PFM) is known as to play
a vital role in conserving forests and biodiversity while
simultaneously generating sustainable livelihoods by
empowering local communities to actively manage forest
resources. PFM in Southwest Ethiopia has demonstrated
positive impacts on biodiversity, livelihoods, and property
rights. Grassroots forest management groups like forest
management associations and cooperatives, play a crucial
role. While local communities are largely engaged, women’s
participation remains limited. Key challenges include
equitable benefits-sharing, insufficient government support,
and financial sustainability. To ensure long-term success,
PFM initiatives need stronger institutional support, improved
market access, and gender sensitive approaches. |
