Are women important in sustainable forest management por Colfer, C.J.P.

“…The first draws on Colfer’s extensive, long term ethnographic experience in the forests of the United States and Indonesia---showing the various ways in which women participate in local, informal forest management; the second draws on her participation in a criteria and indicators project (in Cote d’Ivoire, Brazil, Indonesia, Cameroon, Austria, and the United States)---showing similar evidence, based on short term studies; and the third involves a systemic analysis of factors affecting forests and human well being. This last traces the links among women’s status, women’s education, women’s involvement in wage labour, human health, population, and forests.…”

A goal programming model for planning management of Miombo woodlands por Guveya, E., Sukume, C.

“…The results from the study indicate that households in communal areas are highly differentiated with regards to ability to satisfying family sustenance goals; relatively poor households depend on woodlands for a significant part of their income needs but richer families are more efficient in harvesting woodlands; increase in agricultural product prices or increase in crops yield tend to increase harvesting of woodland products among the better off and reduce woodland harvests by the poorer households; and loss of a member of a household increases the degree of poverty especially among the relatively poor with the greatest impacts being felt with loss of female members of households.…”

Challenges of community forestry in tropical America por Pokorny, B., Sabogal, C., Jong, W. de, Pacheco, P., Porro, N.M., Louman, Bastian, Stoian, D.

“…National and international organizations are promoting community forestry, aiming for a clear set of features that include: legal forest use, reduced impact harvesting, commercialization in non-local markets, and technical training services.While some successful experiences and achievements can be reported, most community forestry initiatives confront severe challenges and only continue while being externally supported. A review of experiences with community forestry in tropical America suggests that to better respond to local realities, community forestry has to shift from transferring externally defined technologies and schemes for social organization to strategies for facilitating communities to develop and implement their own aspirations and vision on local forest management. …”

Assessing deforestation from biofuels: methodological challenges por Gao, Y., Skutsch, M., Drigo, R., Pacheco, P., Masera, O.

“…Given the fact that biofuels are a highly contested approach to reduction of global carbon emissions, and that different lobbies in this debate are making claims that deforestation is, or is not, occurring as a result of the expansion of biofuel production, clarity on the methodological difficulties of making statements of this kind, at least in a global spatial analysis, may help avoid false conclusions being promulgated in the future.…”
