Livelihoods and Landscapes
The Livelihoods and Landscapes Strategy (LLS) is a global initiative that examines the rights and access of the rural poor to forest products in the context of the entire landscape in which people and forests interact.
By using Forest Landscape Restoration (FLR) measures, LLS will demonstrate approaches that would optimize the biodiversity and productivity of forest landscapes, and deliver livelihood benefits to the rural poor in China. LLS in China will also seek to improve the broader context of forest governance. In addition to attempting to influence China’s domestic logging ban, LLS will encourage the Chinese government to join the Global Partnership on FLR, and to incorporate FLR approaches to national reforestation policies and programmes. The project will engage with the Chinese government on the management of Chinese companies carrying out logging and forestry activities in Russia and Africa.
