    This factsheet gives a summary of the impact of FFF support in Nicaragua. Leadership and capacity-building of Mayangna and Mestiza women strengthened, as both producers and craftswomen, due to development of gender strategy supported by the Forest and Farm Facility (FFF) at community level, and in indigenous territories. • 135 female leaders from the Sumu Mayangna Nation, empowered by FFF, contributed to strengthening women’s organizations by creating the new organization “Government of Mayangna Women”. • Better incomes reported after 30 Mayangna women improved products made from tuno trees in territories of Sauni Bas, Sikilta and Sauni As. • Indigenous and Mestiza women led 61 percent of 18 first-tier Forest and Farm Producer Organizations (FFPOs) supported by FFF. Women integrated into all relevant producer organizations. • 11 organizations led by indigenous and Mestiza women strengthened and products improved, leading to a 35 percent rise in demand for those products at local level.

    This factsheet gives a summary of the impact of FFF support in Myanmar. Forest and Farm Producer Organizations (FFPOs) business capabilities built from bottom up with Forest and Farm Facility (FFF) support. • Business-oriented, first-tier FFPOs called Community Forest Product Producers Associations (CFPPAs) established at village level in the Chin, Shan and Rakhine states of the Ayeyarwady region by eight local NGOs supported by FFF. Before FFF began work in 2013, very few community forest businesses existed in Myanmar. • FFPOs built tier by tier, raising incomes for producers of tea, coffee, palm leaves, honey, rattan, and other goods. • Business plan development triggered by training in FFF’s Market Analysis and Development approach and through NGO mentoring and peer-to-peer exchanges with more developed community forest businesses. • Major policy changes catalysed at regional and national level by engaging regional level producer associations. Changes included: national Community Forestry Instructions (CFI) revised; new Community Forestry Unit created with Myanmar’s Forest Department staff assigned to the new unit; transfer of tenure of some 200 000 hectares to communities; community forestry user groups extended to 3 000 members from 740.
