Oromia Forested Landscape Program (OFLP)
---------------------------------------------------------
OFLP is Oromia National Regional State's programmatic umbrella and coordination
platform for multi-sector, multi-partner intervention on all forested landscapes in Oromia. The
Program will encourage land-use choices that retain forests for multiple purposes and optimize
the productivity capacity of forest-surrounding landscapes in Oromia. In order to promote such a
transition into a sustainable and economically viable land use sector, OFLP will foster equitable
and sustainable low carbon development through promoting a series of: (i) on-the-ground
activities that address deforestation, reduce land-use based emissions, and enhance forest carbon
stocks (enabling investments); and (ii) statewide and local enhancements to institutions,
incentives, information, and safeguards management to scale up investment (enabling
environment), including coordinating and leveraging multiple REDD-relevant interventions across the regional state.
