Why is it important?
The paper provides a positive and arguably original example of social forestry within the Savannah Belt and its utilisation as a best practice that has fed into Sudan’s REDD+ Proposal/Policy Document so as to potentially drive and streamline similar such initiatives across Sudan. Climate justice is a wheel to drive a theory of change in minimizing the climate change risk and promoting capacity of the vulnerable community through equal participation and women empowerment.
