Concerned with rampant forest destruction in Nepal, the Government handed over much of the national forest estate to local communities. Throughout the country, local people then embarked on a massive project to turn scrub-land back into forest. Through careful planning and community dedication, the forests have been revived and funds accumulated for community development. But many challenges remain, not least in trying to keep younger generations involved.
