BONN, Germany (Landscape News) – Experts, policymakers, and other stakeholders met in Washington, D.C. last week to discuss land issues in relation to poverty.

We spoke to one of the participants Robert Nasi, director general of the Center for International Forestry Research (CIFOR), to ask him if the two factors are indeed reliable in eradicating poverty. Listen to the answers.
