This research discuss about signsin project impacts, how its secure the partnership among involved stakeholders, and its supporting and constraint factors. Result show that Bangkalan BMP does shows adequately good sign on to critical land rehabilitation effort in Geger Sub Distric, Bangkalan although in small numbers. The partnership among involved stakeholders is found to be not effective due to local government’s lack of participation and support. Project’s multi-benefits and integrated concept and high social capital of geger bangkalan local community have identified as Bangkalan BMP’s supporting factors while lack of finance, ineffective partnership, and under-developed wood pellet local market have been identified as project’s constraint factors.
