| dc.description.abstract | The role of institutions in the management of natural resource in general and forest resource in particular is increasing from time to time as the forest bio-diversities are threatened by different anthropogenic factors. It is, therefore timely to investigate the role that institutions play in the management of natural resources. The main objective of this study was to assess the role of local institutions in coffee forest management taking the case of Bilo-Nophawereda, Illu Abba Bora zone . By using institutional analysis and development (IAD) framework adopted from Ostrom, (2006), this study tried to illustrate how attribute of the rule in use, attribute of the community and attribute of forest resources are affect the management of coffee forest in the study area. The study employed both qualitative and quantitative research method in the form of triangulation. Out of 16 kebeles in the study area the researcher purposively selected 3 adjacent kebelesto thecoffee forest areas. For quantitative interview 125 household were selected from three kebelesby using systematic random sampling technique. On the other hand in-depth interviews, key informant interviews and FGDs were conducted to support and substantiate data obtained through household survey. The findings of the study revealed that, both formal and informal institutions are participating in coffee forest management at local levels. Rulesestablishedby the government to protect the coffee forest area reduce the benefit of local community and make their ownership right insecure, this in turn, negatively affects their participationin coffee forest management activities.Attribute of the community and forest resource also influence the management activities either positively or negatively. Some of them operate as incentive that enhances the management activitiesincluding, cohesiveness, homogeneity and topography, and forest derived goods and services while othersoperate as disincentive for management activities including, group size, distance and lack of clear boundaries. Along with the challenges of coffee forest management, the lack of sense of ownership, illegal encroachment and lack of coordination between different stakeholders are the major critical problems to conserve coffee forest in the study area | en_US |
