Whose vision counts? - The influence of government policy and donor intervention in the formulation of vision in community forest enterprises
How do external factors such as donor interventions and government policies influence the competitiveness of community forest enterprises (CFEs)? The author conducted a qualitative study on two second-tier CFEs in Mexico and Guatemala. The study primarily consisted of semistmctured interviews with 125 informants, including CFE personnel, buyers, government institutions and NGOs. It revealed the importance of the autonomous fonnulation of corporate vision. External interventions should be based on the producers' agency rather than on the donors' agendas. The study also found that forest industries, including CFEs, are generally overregulated, while the root causes of deforestation are not effectively addressed.
