Pirard, R.Rokhim, R.[Asia pulp and paper Indonesia: the business rationale that led to forest degradation and financial collapse]Asia pulp and paper Indonesia: the business rationale that led to forest degradation and financial collapse

Stopping illegal timber harvesting and adopting reduced-impact logging in the tropics, together with wildfire suppression, could cost-effectively reduce carbon emissions and enhance carbon uptake. Carbon uptake in degraded forests could be enhanced by better postlogging forest management practice...


Putz, F.E.Nasi, Robert[Carbon benefits from avoiding and repairing forest degradation]Carbon benefits from avoiding and repairing forest degradation

Bolivia implemented an extensive reform of their forestry sector during the 1990s. Starting five years later, we evaluated the degree of adoption of sustainable forest management practices (SFM) by timber concessionaires in Bolivia and investigated the factors influencing their adoption. Data wer...


Boscolo, M.Snook, L.K.Quevedo, L.[Adoption of sustainable forest management practices in Bolivian timber concessions: a quantitative assessment]Adoption of sustainable forest management practices in Bolivian timber concessions: a quantitative assessment

The implementation of a mechanism for Reducing Emissions from Deforestation and Forest Degradation (REDD - plus) will be affected by governance conditions within host countries. The top eight countries, which are responsible for 70 percent of the world's total annual deforestation, have implement...


Irawan, S.Tacconi, L.[Reducing Emissions from Deforestation and Forest Degradation (REDD) and decentralized forest management]Reducing Emissions from Deforestation and Forest Degradation (REDD) and decentralized forest management
Autor: Kobayashi, S.

Tropical forests are decreasing at the rate of 16.9 million hectares per year due mainly to clearing for agriculture and shifting cultivation. Moreover, timber harvesting results in more than 5 million hectares of tropical forest becoming secondary forests every year. CIFOR has a mission to contr...

Chokkalingam, U.Sabogal C.Almeida, E.Carandang, A.P.Gumartini, T.Jong, W. deBrienza, S.Meza Lopez, A.MurniatiNawir, A.A.Wibowo, L.R.Toma, T.Wollenberg, Eva K.Zhou Zaichi[Local participation, livelihood needs, and institutional arrangements: three keys to sustainable rehabilitation of degraded tropical forest lands]Local participation, livelihood needs, and institutional arrangements: three keys to sustainable rehabilitation of degraded tropical forest lands

Governments in tropical countries are still responding to increasing forest degradation by implementing different types of protected areas. In general, due to their negative image as causes of deforestation, local communities are being excluded from any management role in these conservation areas...


Boissiere, M.Sheil, DouglasBasuki, I.Wan, M.Le, H.[Can engaging local people’s interests reduce forest degradation in Central Vietnam?]Can engaging local people’s interests reduce forest degradation in Central Vietnam?
Autor: Pirard, R.

Developing countries are expected to contribute to climate change mitigation efforts by reducing deforestation, with financial compensations for associated economic losses. These losses are due to foregone revenues and limited economic development, all of these labeled “opportunity costs”. Their ...


Pirard, R.[Estimating opportunity costs of avoided deforestation (REDD): Application of a flexible stepwise approach to the Indonesian pulp sector]Estimating opportunity costs of avoided deforestation (REDD): Application of a flexible stepwise approach to the Indonesian pulp sector

This article presents a system dynamics (SD) method to examine the problem of forest degradation. The model developed takes a system-oriented view of forest management, embracing both social and biophysical factors affecting deforestation. Social factors examined are socio-economic variables or e...


Purnomo, H.Mendoza, G.A.[A system dynamics model for evaluating collaborative forest management: a case study in Indonesia]A system dynamics model for evaluating collaborative forest management: a case study in Indonesia

Inclusion of improved forest management as a way to enhance carbon sinks in the Copenhagen Accord of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (December 2009) suggests that forest restoration will play a role in global climate change mitigation under the post-Kyoto agreement. Alth...
