The Contribution of Forests to National Income in Ethiopia and Linkages With REDD+

UN-REDD Programme
This case study aims to establish the contribution of Ethiopian forests to national income by assessing the value added of the forestry sector, the contribution of forest ecosystems to other sectors, and the annual contribution of forest ecosystems to non-market income. Prior to this study, no full assessment of the income derived from forest-derived goods and services had been undertaken. The only figure available had been the official estimate of the contribution of the forestry industry to GDP (3.8% in 2012-13). By assessing the full contribution of forests to market and non-market income, a more complete picture of their economic importance emerges.
