This project supports the Government of the Islamic Republic of Iran in efforts to reduce land and forest degradation in two target provinces, and develop capacity to support the widespread implementation of such techniques across the country. The overall objectives were to strengthen capacity of local communities and local institutions to plan, implement and evaluate participatory sustainable land and forest management (SLFM) initiatives at village and watershed levels; adopt and implement alternative livelihood options and enhance capacity to mainstream these approaches into national plans, policies and processes. The project outcomes were consistent with national policies and plans, and successful in building local capacity, and influencing policy, institutional and interdepartmental linkages.
