A. Objectif de l'action envisagée :
This partnership programme between EC, FAO and the Participating Countries aims to promote sustainable management of trees and forests in South Asia and Southeast Asia, founded on policies that integrate and balance relevant economic, environmental and social aspects of forestry. It also aims to strengthen the national capacity to collect, compile and disseminate reliable and up-to-date information on forestry, to analyse the forest sector and to make that information available to the policy decision makers.
B. Description :
, this Project expects the following results:
¨ For all target countries, an improved and more in-depth coverage of forestry data and better reliable problem-oriented data which is needed for sustainable forest management;
This Project is expecte to produce the following results:
¨ For all target countries, an improved and more in-depth coverage of forestry data and better reliable problem-oriented data which is needed for sustainable forest management;
For the selected pilot countries, a proven, cost-effective methodology to collect and analyse forestry data for sustainable forest management which is essential but not yet commonly available at national level, and to carry out policy/institutional analysis for each of the selected countries;
¨ For the Forestry Departments, local staff and Forestry Officers, improved institutional and technical capacity obtained through the project's activities (workshops, international and national consultants, on the job training, pilot studies and analysis);
¨ For the highest levels of policy makers, improved analytical tools to review and formulate appropriate forestry policies for sustainable forest management; and
¨ For EC, FAO, International Community and general public, access to the data, information and analysis of the forestry sectors in the target countries.
C. Justification :
