Indicators for Measuring the Success of Nepal’s Community Forestry Program: A Local Perspective

Abstract: 

This paper explores locally agreed upon indicators to determine the success of Nepal’s community forestry program. A workshop for community forest user groups (CFUGs) representatives and local forestry professionals was organized to develop the indicators. An interview schedule was developed to solicit CFUG members’ views on the identified indicators. A stratified random sample of CFUG members was taken, and 487 members were randomly selected for personal interviews. Descriptive statistics were used to analyze data.
