Landscape Transformations in Honduras
By Filippo Del Gatto - Forest Trends View PublicationHonduras’ rural landscapes are undergoing profound transformations. Using the launch of the country’s new Forest and Land Cover Map as a starting point, this Information Brief examines the nature of these dynamics, focusing on the way migration and cash transfers from Hondurans abroad influence forest recovery processes in landscapes dominated by small farmers. The final sections of the article describe the existing or potential implications of these dynamics for Honduras’ ongoing REDD+ and FLEGT-VPA processes.
