The Peoples Rules and Organizations Supporting the Protection of Ecosystem Resources (USAID/PROSPER), in partnership with the Forestry Development Authority (FDA), recently signed a community forest management agreement in Monrovia. The agreement between the FDA and eight forest dependent communities resulting in eight Community Forest Management Agreements (CFMAs), is intended to entrust ownership and management rights to local communities.
