Benefit sharing options in Collaborative Forest Management: A case study of Rwoho Environmental Conservation and Protection Association and the National Forestry Authority in Uganda
This case study looks at some early experiences and lessons from a benefit sharing regime in a Collaborative Forest management (CFM) project in Uganda under the Nile Basin Reforestation Project. It is implemented by Uganda’s National Forestry Authority (NFA) in partnership with a local Community Based Organization (RECPA). The reforestation project consists of five small-scale Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) projects being implemented in the Rwoho Forest Reserve in South Western Uganda. The case study outlines the benefit sharing arrangements under the project as well as highlighting lessons for the design of REDD+ benefit sharing mechanisms.
