    Forty years of community-based forestry 2016
    Also available in:

    Since the 1970s and 1980s, community-based forestry has grown in popularity, based on the concept that local communities, when granted sufficient property rights over local forest commons, can organize autonomously and develop local institutions to regulate the use of natural resources and manage them sustainably. Over time, various forms of community-based forestry have evolved in different countries, but all have at their heart the notion of some level of participation by smallholders and comm unity groups in planning and implementation. This publication is FAO’s first comprehensive look at the impact of community-based forestry since previous reviews in 1991 and 2001. It considers both collaborative regimes (forestry practised on land with formal communal tenure requiring collective action) and smallholder forestry (on land that is generally privately owned). The publication examines the extent of community-based forestry globally and regionally and assesses its effectiveness in del ivering on key biophysical and socioeconomic outcomes, i.e. moving towards sustainable forest management and improving local livelihoods. The report is targeted at policy-makers, practitioners, researchers, communities and civil society.

    Rod, izvori prihoda na selu i šumarstvo
    Ocena rodnih pitanja u kosovskom šumarstvu
    2017
    Also available in:

    Glavni cilj ovog istraživanja je da identifikuje i analizira ulogu žena i muškaraca u sektoru šumarstva na Kosovu, korišćenje i vlasništvo šuma od strane žena i muškaraca. Izveštaj takođe ima za cilj da analizira rodna pitanja u okviru institucionalne politike i pravnog okvira koji uređuje upravljanje šumama, kako bi se dale preporuke o tome kako rodna pitanja efikasnije integrisati u politiku o šumarstvu na Kosovu. Istraživanje čini deo projekta pod nazivom "Podrška sprovođenju politika i stra tegije o šumama na Kosovu" (GCP/KOS/005/FIN), finansiran od Finske, koji ima za cilj da poveća doprinos sektora šumarstva nacionalnoj privredi kroz održivo korišćenje šumskih resursa, uzimajući u obzir višestruku namenu šumarstva i privredne, socijalne i ekološke koristi od šuma, kao i doprinos sektora ublažavanju klimatskih promena. Studija pokazuje ograničen pristup žena odlučivanju i informacijama, u poređenju sa muškarcima, ali i nerešena imovinska prava žena. Osim toga, visoka stopa neza poslenosti je glavna prepreka koju su identifikovali članovi seoskih zajednica, a naročito žene. U izveštaju se takođe ukazuje na interese seoskih žena da poboljšaju svoje veštine branja i sakupljanja, obrade i prodaje nedrvnih šumskih proizvoda (NDŠP). Prema tome, izveštaj pokazuje značaj unapređenja pristupa žena informacijama, jačanja kapaciteta i obuhvaćenost u donošenju odluka. Izveštaj se završava isticanjem da NDŠP imaju veliki potencijal za smanjenje siromaštva i nesigurnosti da se prehr ane u regionima sprovedene studije, naročito kada se efikasno podrže i žene i muškarci.

    Gender, rural livelihoods and forestry 2017
    Also available in:

    The main purposes of this research are to identify and analyse the role of women and men in the forestry sector in Kosovo, and women’s and men’s ownership and use of forests. The report also aims to analyse the gender issues within the institutional policy and legal framework that governs forest management, in order to provide recommendations on how to mainstream gender in forest policies in Kosovo more effectively. The research forms part of a project entitled, “Support to Implementation of the Forest Policy and Strategy in Kosovo” (GCP/KOS/005/FIN) funded by Finland, which aims to increase the forestry sector’s contribution to the national economy through the sustainable use of forest resources, taking into account multipurpose forestry, and the economic, social and environmental benefits of forests, as well as the sector’s contribution to climate change mitigation. The study demonstrates women’s limited access to decision-making and information compared with men, and women’s pen ding property rights. Furthermore, the high unemployment rate is the main obstacle identified by rural community members, especially women. The report also demonstrates the interests of rural women in improving their skills in the collection, processing and marketing of non-wood forest products (NWFPs). Consequently, the report shows the importance of improving women’s access to information, capacity development and decision-making. It concludes by emphasizing that NWFPs have strong potential fo r reducing food insecurity and poverty in the regions of the study, particularly when both women and men are effectively supported.
