Abstract
Enhancing livelihoods from improved forest management in Nepal (FST/2017/037), also known as EnLiFT2, was a second phase project beginning in July 2018 and concluding in June 2024. EnLiFT2 builds on the success and lessons learnt in EnLiFT1, Enhancing livelihoods and food security from agroforestry and community forestry in Nepal (FST/2011/076) which ran from 2013-2018. EnLiFT2 was originally a 5-year project but was granted a one-year costed extension to account for the lost COVID19 year in 2020. The aim of the project was to enhance forest management practices in community forests (CF) and private land to improve livelihoods and economic development and facilitate improved social equity. The objectives of EnLiFT2 were: 1. To enhance adoption and benefits from Active and Equitable Forest Management (AEFM) and improved private forestry practices; 2. To develop and institutionalise community forestry planning, governance and gender equity frameworks within the new local government system; and 3. To design and facilitate the establishment of pro-poor small-scale forest enterprises.
