Forests play a key role in the mitigation of global warming and provide many other vital ecosystem goods and services. However, as forest continues to vanish at an alarming rate from the surface of the planet, the world desperately needs knowledge on what contributes to forest preservation and restoration. Migration, a hallmark of globalization, is widely recognized as a main driver of forest recovery and poverty alleviation.

Key Messages

• Overall, the NFPP has a moderately positive effect on forest cover in the program areas.

• The NFPP has a greater positive effect on forests held by village households than state-owned forests.

• The NFPP might achieve enhanced performance by (re)directing larger proportions of the program’s funds and forest restoration activities toward village forest managers.
