Book Description
Evidence of problems confronting forestry research in Latin America led to a survey of the 16 major institutions. Their research programs were found to be broad and overlapping. Program orientation is weak. Training opportunities are too few. Regional coordination of research is needed, and these institutions appear ready for it. Stronger support of expert advisors, voluntary coordination of programs, and a series of regional training courses are suggested. The need for forestry research in Latin America is growing. In all countries there area increased efforts to conserve forests and to encourage reforestation and forest-based industries. Success in this depends upon technical practices as yet unperfected. The knowledge that underlies these practices can be acquired only through research.

Municipal Forest Management in Latin America
Author: Lyès FerroukhiPublisher: IDRC
ISBN: 9781552501313
Category : Nature
Languages : en
Pages : 242
Book Description
The book was written for three different purposes: (i) better understand the types of powers assigned to municipalities to this day, (ii) better understand the increasingly important role played by municipalities in forest management, (iii) analyze the opportunities that were created and the challenges faced by the decentralization processes in the region. The book compiles findings from in-depth studies conducted in 6 countries: Bolivia, Brazil, Costa Rica, Nicaragua, Honduras and Guatemala. It uncovers some significant forest management schemes initiated by municipalities on the regional, national and local levels. The bookOCOs authors hope that their research findings appeal to departmental and municipal public servants, decision-makers, project technicians, researchers, international cooperation agencies professionals, municipal technicians, and organization workers and that they help them better understand municipal forest management."

Book Description
"Forest Resource Policy in Latin America" gathers the thinking of a score of experts on sustainable use and management of forests, including incentives for investment. The authors tackle the thorny social issues of property rights, deforestation, and forest management and ownership by indigenous people and take a hard look at the trade and environmental issues in forest production that will affect future directions for sustainable forestry development in Latin America. Some argue that the main opportunity to conserve natural forests lies in recognizing and paying for the environmental services they provide. In addition, compensatory measures such as the establishment and better management of strictly protected areas appear to be the best tools to delay the loss of ecosystems and species. Alternative forest concession policies and trade and environmental issues in forest production are also analyzed.
