The development objective of the Forest Conservation and Management Project is to assist the Government of Tanzania (GOT) in implementing its forestry policy by developing framework for the long-term sustainable management and conservation of Tanzania's mainland forestry resources. A resettlement action plan (RAP) was prepared for the farm plots displaced for biodiversity conservation in the Derema forest corridor. Some of the mitigating measures included in the document are : facilitate subdivision of estate lands into 3-acre plots; visit each participating village for preliminary explanations of resettlement steps to be taken; organize workshops in each village in benefits, disadvantages, and cost of each low land crop; ensure preparation and delivery of titles or certificates of land transfer to new holders; ensure monitoring of farm income recovery from lowland farms; install mechanism (grievances redress) for resolution of disputes that may arise from the compensation and development process; and finally, adhere to the village Land Act and Land Regulations no. 9, 10 and 13-18 which set out the basis and procedures for compensation of village lands, and the Bank operational policy 4.12 on involuntary resettlement.
