dc.descriptionThis facsheets gives some highlights of the impact of FFF support in Nepal, as well as some major achievements by the numbers, and some lessons learnt. Summary of the impact: • Policy outcomes were influenced by Forest and Farm Producer Organizations (FFPOs) with important implications for improving livelihoods and forest sustainability through direct dialogues supported by Forest and Farm Facility (FFF) between FFPOs and the government. • FFPO enterprises improved capacity to manage finances and demonstrate their economic viability, leading to increased investment and access to finance — particularly for women. • Greater economic empowerment among women entrepreneurs, demonstrating new skills and confidence in their abilities as business managers. This was evident when negotiating credit access from financial institutions, despite facing traditional challenges such as lack of ownership of assets for collateral purposes. • Entrepreneurship and investment catalyzed for women’s enterprises through alliance of FFPOs. FNCSI’s Central Women Entrepreneurs Committee (CWEC) took central role in successfully lobbying for establishment of the Women Entrepreneurs Development Fund within the Ministry of Industry.
