The Forestry Sector Adaptation Framework responds to the growing climate and environmental pressures affecting Malawi’s forests, including forest degradation, wildfires, pests and diseases, and the loss of forest cover. Under the NAP, the sector comprises six strategies and 12 actions aimed at strengthening sustainable forest management, expanding customary afforestation and reforestation, strengthening community-based forest management, preventing and controlling forest fires, addressing pests and diseases, and promoting agroforestry.The 12 actions include restoring native forests, strengthening enforcement of community by-laws, improving wildfire detection and firebreaks, and establishing protective buffer forests.
