Community Forest Management:
Unveiling the Success Story of Nepal

coécrit avec Jean-Marie Baland, Nicolas Delbart, et Subhrendu Pattanayak

Abstract
Nepal has implemented one of the most ambitious and comprehensive program of forest management decentralization in the world since 1993.  The program has been widely recognized as a successful example of participatory natural resource management. We first use quasi-experimental methods to quantify the net increase in tree cover resulting from the program and how this change evolved over time in the Hills and Mountains of Nepal. We then assess the relative importance of forest density relative to forested area in contributing to these changes. We finally discuss some of the mechanisms driving forest restoration, emphasizing the role community
forestry also played in reducing immediate demand pressures by altering energy choices.
