Description

Reflecting a belief in the causal link between classic models of forest management that led to the abandonment and transformation of the landscape and the frequency of major forest fires, the promoters of this project seek to play an active role in monitoring and influencing public policies for forest management, such as future Programmes for Reordering and Landscape Management and Integrated Landscape Management Areas. The project will involve advocating for certain public issues and building a platform where information on existing legislation and best practices will be made available and where citizen participation in the development of public policy in this area will be promoted. A barometer of forestry investment and two models for joint forest management areas will be created.
