| Title: | Forestry, non-forest sector policies and the environment: a review |
| Authors: | Culas, Richard J. |

| Issue Date: | 2006 |
| Abstract: | Environmental conservation is intimately tied to both economic development and
sustainable management of natural resources. Convergence and complementarity of
environmental and developmental functions of forest management and their
sustainable utilisation is a challenge for both developing and industrialised countries.
Nationally forests are seen as a consumable commodity but at an international level
forests are scarce resources and their non-commodity values matters particularly with
respect to climate change mitigation and bio-diversity conservation. In this regard this
paper reviews two aspects: an assessment of influence of non-forest sector (external)
policies on forests; the initiatives taken by international community for forestry
development in developing countries. |
