}}Community Forestry International, Inc. also known as CFI, is a non-profit organization that helps communities regenerate and preserve forests.[2]

Function

CFI helps development agencies, professional foresters, and others with an interest in localforests to get the necessary legal instruments; helps them get resources, go through negotiation processes, and have methods to support the resident managers.

CFI believes to encourage greater sustainable development, it is needed to

include the local communities in the process of managing natural

resources. CFI also enables strategies for community forest management

that help them become an integral part of managing sustainable forests

worldwide.

Program components

The program has four components which are designed to engage the national policy makers, to reduce conflicts, and to make managing agreements that will result, with the help of CFI, in more sustainable forest use. The four components are:[3]

  1. Regional and National Policy Dialogues
  2. Mediation Processes and Methods
  3. Participatory Research and Field Programs
  4. Communication

Programs

Some of the projects available are:

  • Community forestry
  • Communities, Climate Change, & Carbon Offset-Credit Payments.
  • Communities, Livelihood, & Payments for Environmental Services
  • Communities, Culture & Conversation
  • Communities & Biodiversity
  • Community Forestry Law & Policy

Process

CFI designs, organized, and facilitates policy dialogues and many

different levels, such as local, national, regional, and international.

This encourages the exchange of many new ideas and provides a spot to

articulate problem issues. They also draw on a large variety of tools and techniques that support and empower communities that are currently involved in forest management. With this, CFI can hold training seminars.

CFI conducts field research by being involved and working with the NGOs, forest departments, communities and government planners. CFI analyzes the effect of government policies and development programs, and this also helps with communication. To keep people who are interested updated, CFI maintains an active writing and publishing program. By using their publishing and writing program they are able to publish their findings from field research.

Current projects

CFI currently has projects in South Asia, Southeast Asia, and the USA.[4]
