Synopsis (short abstract) This report will present the activities, successes and achievements of the FAO FLEGT Programme throughout 2016. The past year marked significant progress in the implementation of the FAO FLEGT Programme as it continued to shift from the closing of Phase II work - effective 31 October 2016 – to focus greater attention on the implementation of Phase III projects and measures. Significant work has been undertaken in Phase III to contribute meaningfully to the global body of FLEGT achievements. The Programme has continued its support mechanisms in VPA countries, launched a new methodology to assist a limited number of non-VPA countries and increased its focus on supporting the private sector so it can better understand the benefits of FLEGT initiatives and contribute to these in all the Programme’s countries of operations. Further, the information and knowledge component of the Programme has also expanded in Phase III.

    This report is a mid-term evaluation (MTE) of the Forest and Farm Facility (FFF), one of the first “umbrella programmes” within the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO). In support of the programme vision, “Smallholders, communities and indigenous peoples’ organizations have improved their livelihoods and decision-making over forest and farm landscapes”, FFF activities were organized under three working areas or pillars: i) Strengthen smallholder, women, community and in digenous peoples’ producer organizations for business/livelihoods and policy engagement; ii) Catalyze multi-sectoral stakeholder policy platforms with governments at local and country levels; iii) Link local voices and learning to global processes through communication and information dissemination.

    Small-scale forest-based processing enterprises 1987
    Also available in:

    Small-scale forest-based processing enterprises comprise an important, but neglected, part of the forestry and forest industries sector. They process a large part of the raw materials from the forest and supply some of the main markets for forest products, in particular in the rural areas of developing countries. Our concern in the work reported on in this publication has been to determine the main features, prospects and problems of such small-scale enterprises and what support could enhance their developmental contribution, and therefore the developmental impact of the forest sector. Many small enterprises are currently unstable, and offer little security or prospect of self-reliance for those engaged in them. These problems need to be tackled by promoting viable enterprises run by rural people through effective participatory organizations which can increase peoples' control over their own economic destiny. External supp ort to increase production and efficiency needs to be compatible with those valuable elements of local culture which still have a role to play in the modern context.
