UNDP 2024-2027: Sustainable Private Sector in Forestry Program

About this project

The objective of the Sustainable Private Sector in Forestry Program implemented by UNDP and its consortium partners in Ethiopia in the period 2024 -2027 is to create or improve opportunities for sustainable livelihoods (e.g., income) and/or productive employment (jobs) for at least 70 000 rural and peri-urban poor (mainly women and youth) through systemic changes in market systems of a sustainably managed forestry sector. It also seeks to contribute to the following three sub-objectives: a) Enhance the capacity (technical and financial) of private sector actors, including small-scale producers, traders, cooperatives to engage in sustainable forest product marketing businesses in Ethiopia; b) Strengthen institutional support systems and regulatory frameworks to create an enabling environment for private sector engagement in pro-poor, forest products marketing, ensuring equitable access and fair-trade practices; and c) Facilitate the development of market linkages, value chains, and distribution networks for pro-poor, forest products; promoting inclusive economic opportunities and sustainable livelihoods for local communities in Ethiopia.
