Liberia Sustainable Forest Economy Project

pipeline

This project seeks to capitalize on the former Liberia Forest Sector Project’s achievements and lessons learned to boost Liberia’s forest economy and to meet its NDC targets by improving the governance of the forestry sector, the interventions related to conservation, and commercial activities, and the participation of communities’ vis a vis income generation and alternative livelihoods. The World Bank’s Global Challenge on Forests for Development, Climate and Biodiversity (GCP-F) provides a framework for addressing key challenges of Liberia's forestry sector improving the lives of people living in and around forests and bringing a cohesive framework for national commitments. It can provide the foundation for a long-term forest economy as well as the foundation for climate financing.
