Abstract:
Forests contribute significantly to the livelihoods of forest adjacent communities. Under the Kenya's new Forest Act (2005), community participation in forest conservation is provided for through formation of Community Forest Associations (CFAs). This study focused on Ontukigo and Ngare Ndare CFAs involved in participatory management of Ontulili and Ngare Ndare forests in North Central Kenya. It aimed at identifying household factors associated with decision to participate in PFM and the differences between CFA and non-CFA members in their participation in forest conservation activities.

Abstract:
The Forest Sector is Key to Kenya’s social and economic well-being since most of the financial activities rely on environmental-based resources for their sustenance. The Forest Conservation and Management Act, of 2016, provides for the conservation and management of public, community, and private forests. This has brought a paradigm shift in forest management from central command to involving various stakeholders. Adequate stakeholders' engagement in the direction of forest resources, results in minimal conflicts. Local involvement promotes a sense of ownership to the Forest Adjacent Communiti

Aim: Building on the ‘Gender Box’ theoretical framework, men and women engaging in forest governance encounter constraints at micro, meso and macro-scale levels. This paper investigates and compares the constraints and opportunities faced by husbands and wives participating in forest governance within Cherangany Hills Forest, Kenya. Methods: A concurrent triangulation research design was adopted, and semi-structured questionnaires were administered to 280 Community Forest Association (CFA) members who were randomly sampled while 35 key informants who were purposively sampled were interviewed.

Forestry related projects fail due to the lack of participation by the community during the initiation stage. This further leads to unsustainable management of forests.

The Kenya Forest Act of 2005, subsequently revised in 2016, introduced the Kenya Forest Service and its mandate to engage in Participatory Forest Management (PFM) agreements with local communities adjoining state forests. This framework necessitated the establishment of Community Forest Associations (CFAs) nationwide, including the Loita Community Forest Association. However, a prevailing concern surrounding CFAs is the delineation and redefinition of boundaries, an issue that has gained prominence due to Kenya's decentralized forest governance system and the ambiguity surrounding the manageme

Abstract:
Forest resources are faced with challenges that range from mismanagement, overutilization, conflicts and competing claims. Consequently, this has given rise to legislation and policy to protect forests. However, many governments in developing countries have difficulties in implementing sustainable forest management (SFM). One of the strategies advocated to foster SFM is participatory forest management (PFM). The PFM approach has been practised formally in Kenya since 2005 when the Forests Act of 2005 came into force. The aim of this study was to assess PFM performance since the inception of th

Doubtless, it was required reading for Leopold’s training at the Yale Forest School, which he completed in 1909. Clements (1905) believed that a “plant association” or community was a “superorganism.”

The genre of the novel may seem to provide the most obvious instance of literary progressivism. But I expose revelatory complications beneath this apparently paradigmatic instance. Critical tradition routinely coordinates the rise of the novel with a series of other progressive narratives: the rise of empiricism, realism, and capitalism (to name just a few). But I show how the Romantic novel, as presented in the work of Ann Radcliffe, Charlotte Smith, and Jane Austen, tests the explanatory limits of such alignments.
