Abstract	Biophysical (Forest carbon) data of Community forest in Kayar Khola watershed, Nepal under a Pilot project “Design and setting up of a governance and payment system for Nepal’s Community Forest Management under Reduced Emission from Deforestation and Degradation (REDD)” implemented by ICIMOD and project partners ANSAB and FECOFUN. The pilot project aimed at setting up a benefit sharing mechanism in Community forest system.
Purpose	The purpose of the pilot was to measure forest carbon and demonstrate that communities can be involved in cost effective way. And to demostrate en effective way of benefit sharing mechanism which can be customized for similary forest magagement regimes across the HKH region.
