This paper found that relatively few (48%) articles were adopted reforestation in community forestry management as tools to sustaining the forest resources. Moreover, this paper identified five categories of implications in terms of sustainability of reforestation in community forestry have been reported. This paper highlighted the need for reforestation as a tool to improve forest resources scarcity and the importance of stakeholder involvement in implementation and planning stages of community forestry management for further development.
