    Sixty percent of Sierra Leone was once forested, but today less than10 percent of the original forest-cover remains due to deforestationand degradation. The poor condition of these forests was mostlycaused by human activities. Weak governance, which failed to involve local communities, and low forest-management capacities exacerbated the degraded conditions. Deforestation in turn has had negative effects on Sierra Leone's poor communities that depend on the forests for fuel, food and income. This project was implemented to protect and restore the remaining forests in four pilot sites through capacity building in and awareness raising of the community based forestry (CBF) concept with the intention to scale-up in the future.
