Community based forest management programmes in Nepal lessons and policy implications. Index. Over the past few decades Community Based Forest Management (CBFM) has evolved as a key strategy of conservation as well as promoting local livelihoods especially in the developing countries. Nepal has been designing various policies and programmes to support somewhat different but complementary strategies of CBFM over the past three decades. This book draws from these experiences top document lessons from different CBFM initiatives that have taken place over the past few decades in Nepal. The book analyzes not only the dynamics of community level interactions but also how policy and programme processes shape determine and influence the practices and outcomes of community based natural resource management activities. Together the eight chapters of the book demonstrate the pitfalls and potentials of community based and collaborative management programmes. In particular the analysis highlights the slow progress achieved when programmes are implemented without a basic consensus on the broad framework for decision making making them highly contested in practice. The Nepal experience shows the importance of deliberation on policy and programme agendas with affected people including local communities. While community based approaches are often assumed to be more equitable the case studies in this volume show the limits of devolution (moving power from state to community) and the importance of strengthening the capacity of community organizations to become effective and equitable managers of forests. At the same time the cases show the degree of autonomy that is needed to provide the conditions for effective local level collective action and resilient local institutions. Perhaps what is most important is that these stories show how over time community based forestry programmes move beyond a narrow conception of a government programme to an independent social arena where civil society groups state agencies and international actors contest each other for diverse resources power and positions. Nepal's experiences shows that potential of civil society action at multiple scales to make forest governance transparent accountable and democratic. The degree to which community based programmes address issues at upper layers of governance such as district or other sub national arenas is rarely considered by programme planners yet the empirical examples illustrate the importance of integration of these levels. This kind of integration and accountability is crucial in order to combat the ways in which subtle agendas of centralization are promoted in the name of participation devolution and decentralization. Finally the book demonstrates the importance of learning negotiation and experimentation to achieve successful sustainable and democratic forest governance in Nepal. 248 pp. …
