Forest Peoples Programme is a mid-sized non-profit based in Moreton in Marsh, England, focused on advancing the rights of forest-dwelling communities who rely on forests for their livelihoods. Founded in 1990 in response to a forest crisis, it aims to create political space for these communities to secure their lands and determine their futures. It was registered as a UK charity in 2000, establishing a formal operating presence in the country. The organization concentrates on helping forest peoples defend land rights and participate in decisions affecting their lives and environments. Its work includes advocacy and legal actions when necessary, as evidenced by past complaints filed against a major palm oil company in 2018. In 2021, the organization saw a leadership transition when its director moved on to join another organization.
