The National Union of Community Forestry Development Committees (NUCFDCs) is made up of 23 CFDC groups and other community forest user organizations within 11 of the 15 counties of Liberia, representing about 500 affected communities and villages.
Established in 2009 as the national umbrella organization, we advocate for community rights under the 2006 National Forestry Reform Law, the 2009 Community Rights Law, and the 2018 Land Rights Act. We are a fully registered institution under Liberian law, based in Margibi County.
"Liberian communities working together to ensure the rights of all forest community members are respected and improve livelihoods through forest resources, agri-products and land management."
We promote rural community participation in decision-making, monitor forestry and land policies, coordinate development activities, ensure affected communities receive fair benefits, and foster unity among all forest stakeholders across Liberia.

Ensure that affected communities receive social benefits and just rewards for the use of their forest and land resources.
Foster unity and ensure effective communication among CFDCs, forest and farm producers, and all forest stakeholders.
Monitor social agreements, community projects, and forest usage to ensure communities benefit fairly from forest resources.
