The CIF-FIP funded ELCIR+ project sought to establish a sustainable human-forest symbiosis in Ghana, with measures to increase household earnings while shifting rural income generation away from dependencies on unsustainable forest-extraction, and buttressing procedures for regenerative timber harvesting, equitable timber benefit sharing, and yield-increasing agroforestry systems.
