Abstract
This policy brief deals with the research findings of the collaborative research project 'CHAnces IN Sustainability ' promoting natural resource based product chains in East Africa' (CHAINS) funded by the Federal Ministry of Education and Research, and the DLR Project Management Agency. It presents the studies investigating the value chains of highland BAMBOO and NATURAL GUM AND RESIN products in Ethiopia as well as GUM ARABIC value chains in Sudan. These products possess high economic, social and environmental benefits and untapped potentials. However, their pro-duction and commercialization are constrained seriously by various challenges limiting the realization of their potentials. Identified policy options are: • strengthen institutional capacity; •improve infrastructure and support services; •organize necessary information for sustainable utilization planning; •facilitate actors' communication, innovation and fair partnership. This calls for forest product value chain development that is supported by policy, training, research, technology development and transfer, market linkage that consider private sectors, state, civic organizations, universities and research institutes. |
