Promoting shared management & restoration of protected forest areas: Mpomwa Local Forest – Practice Brief #2 Engagement with Traditional leaders

protected areas is diminishing and the ability of the
State to control these through law enforcement alone
is challenging. This includes tackling entrenched
encroachment and settlement within key PFAs.
