2.2 Descripción detallada del Enfoque MST

Descripción detallada del Enfoque MST:

Aims / objectives: To Integrate conservation and livelihoods goals.
To legally empower local communities to take control of forest resources and develop local level institutions to organize sustainable use of forest resources.
To protect biodiversity.

Methods: By increasing people's participation in afforestation programs.
Sustainable extraction of raw materials.
Regular supervision
Planting the economically high priced or demanded plant species.


Stages of implementation: Firstly DISTRICT FOREST OFFICE, KUDAHAR planted trees and it was later handed to local people.They started afforestation on the yearly basis since 2052 B.S.Now it is under the supervision of community only.

Role of stakeholders: They are the main organizers for successful and sustainable management of forest.
They collect the fund for forest maintenance.
They frequently study the condition of forest.

Other important information: It contains a lot of herbal plants but due to lack of experts and other technical resource,they are not being identified and valuable species have been destroyed as well.

2.7 Tipo de Enfoque

• District Forest Office ,Kudahar

2.8 Propósitos/ objetivos principales del Enfoque

The Approach focused mainly on SLM with other activities (Forest products such as tree and grass fodder, fuel wood and timber,making handicrafts, Supply of raw materials,Major products(Economic))

Protect the forest resource to some extent or ensure security of the houses around as the forest mostly covers the sloopy lands.Protect soil from erosion thus have a secure ,fresh,green environment.
