Abstract
There is international consensus that sharing of benefits from natural resources like forests is a key tool that can be used to promote both sustainable management of natural resources and improve livelihoods of natural resource adjacent communities. Effective benefit sharing provides incentives (in form of monetary and non-monetary benefits) for the local communities to engage in sustainable management of the forest resources. The benefits like access to some resources and money also contribute to the well-being of beneficiaries.
