canti,Dora,Damma,Konga and Yingi-1 A/R sites of 2010 / 2018year .

Challenges and the way Foreword

approach to the rural community and in engaging in A/R activities

Conclusion and Recommendation for training program in the future.

Recommendation

Rural communities are our main actors and back ground for the implementation of REDD+ on the ground as well as carrying overall A/R activity starting site selection, plantation hole digging, loading and unloading seedlings, planning seedlings, weeding /cultivating and taking caring from any damage. therefore, it is necessary training the community in further how to handel the existing natural environment of their surrounding in detail.

For effective and successful implementation of A/R activity at rural kebele level in the coming physical year it is better to consider the following point

1. The internal by-law should be delivered to the community engaged in 2010A/R activity as soon as possible in order to gain full trust for the next physical year A/R activity,

2. Use right and property right based on the forest law and Rural land admiration land use should be facilitated to the community of participated on A/R of 2010 on time.

Conclusion

In the process of implementing A/R activity, especially in Anfillo Woreda in Annual Work Plan of 2010, we experienced that a detailed and in depth repeated discussion with the whole community, engaging and participating Qerro and Qarre in overall processes of the A/R activity was the crucial key of the planned activity. In addition to the above point, assigning more qualified

and committed experts to A/R site from woreda in training the community and implementing the activity as scheduled is the most issue to be considered, because the failure recorded in A/R sites of Yingi-2,Banga and Dawwar was the effect of assigning non-qualified expert and non-committed professional
