CN00/057: ‘Poverty dimensions of public governance and forest management in Ghana’ – Project Logframe
Narrative Summary OVI MOV Risks & Assumptions
Goal:
[NRSP FAI LF Output 1] Planning
strategies to sustain livelihoods of
poor people dependent on forest
adjacent to cropland developed and
promoted
Purpose:
[NRSP FAI LF 1.2]
Strategies for promoting new CPR
management approaches to increase
the livelihood opportunities of poor
people developed and implemented
in Ghana, in the FAI target zones.
To be achieved through a phased
approach involving:
! Initial scoping study
(present commissioned
research )
! Full research study
! Validation of
recommendations (in
association with national
and bilateral partners)
! Wider dissemination
[NRSP FAILF Output 1/OVI]
By 2002, new approaches to the management of
common pool resources and forest biodiversity
validated in two target areas, incl. Ghana FAI.
By 2003, these approaches incorporated into
participatory management strategies to maintain forest
integrity and adopted by target institutions in two
targeted countries.
[NRSP FAI LF 1.2.1.b]
By end of project:
Knowledge of institutions mediating policy
(decentralised local govt./ agriculture and forest-related
institutions) updated, identifying gaps and key
constraints.
Research topics on strategies of participatory
management aimed at enhancing the livelihoods of the
poor and marginal at the FAI investigated and
elaborated with a view to informing future FAI calls on
Ghana and elsewhere.
Uptake pathways for alternative policy and other
innovations defined and assessed

Enabling environment exists.
Budgets and programmes of
target instns. are sufficient &
well managed.
Target beneficiaries adopt and
use strategies
Incoming GoG retains
commitment to ‘Vision 2020’
goals of broad participation, &
proves open to policy
innovation, & assimilation of
research findings.
Policy-makers are otherwise
amenable to acknowledging
evidence of research studies in
developing policy.
