The future of forests in Asia and the Pacific: Outlook for 2020
The "Future of Forests" conference, convened in Chiang Mai, Thailand from 16 to 18 October 2007, was an important effort to understand the views of a wide spectrum of stakeholders on how forestry in Asia and the Pacific will unfold in the future in view of larger societal changes. A comprehensive set of forestry and related topics was addressed, including sessions describing land-use dynamics and underlying forestry trends, key drivers of change in forestry, shifts in forest policies and institu tions, efforts to balance social, environmental and economic functions of forestry, globalization and national outlooks, and civil society and private sector perspectives on forestry. All of these were drawn together to help describe potential futures for forests in the region and to chart prospective ways forward.
