Abstract

Once Bangladesh was famous for its evergreen/ semi evergreen tropical and world famous mangrove forest. But over the years due to over exploitation of forests and its non-participatory management, more than 50% of the forest resources has been depleted. Realising the grim effect of destruction of forests and to repair the lapidated environmental condition, both the government and nongovernment organization have taken up afforestation programme. The NGOs have added a new dimension in the forest management, which has ensured participation of the community people and protection of the vegetation.
