Stories of change - empowering local communities for a fairer future for all

RECOFTC - The Center for People and Forests works to amplify the voices of local communities in forest decision-making. To ensure a fair future for all, decision-making at all levels - including the local community level - is necessary to achieve a green and equitable future. The stories presented here offer a glimpse into RECOFTC and our partners' work at the grassroots level, where we are developing capacities for more equitable outcomes. Our projects are helping to shape a more equitable future so that global agreements don't leave out Asia and the Pacific's most vulnerable people - for a brighter future for both people and forests.
