Good governance is intimately associated with the success of community forestry (CF). Participation, transparency and accountability are the most significant indicators of good governance in CF. Many governmental, non-governmental, and local organizations are associated as service providers. The assessment of good governance is crucial in CF because of a wide range of stakeholders and a large number of beneficiaries. Therefore, this study proposes to understand the current status of CF governance at the management level in the Thulodhunga Patalthum Tintara Baikunthe CF of Nepal. The household survey (n=49) and key informants’ interviews were conducted for the research. MS Excel, SPSS, and Arc GIS were used for data analysis and map preparation. The overall participation, transparency and accountability level of CFUG does not seem satisfactory as per the government’s decision. Thus, it is aware that good coordination among general members, committee members, and various service providers is required for good governance.
