Abstract
Community-based forest management (CBFM) programmes are increasingly recognised as effective tools for combating land degradation in rural landscapes. The theoretical framework proposed offers a comprehensive approach to enhancing the effectiveness of CBCM initiatives in addressing land degradation issues within peasant farming communities. Policy makers and practitioners are encouraged to adopt this framework as a guiding principle for future interventions aimed at promoting sustainable forest management practices among rural populations.
