GESTION DURABLE PROTECTION DES FORETS CONSERVATION DE LA NATURE DEGRADATION DE L'ENVIRONNEMENT |
| Résumé : |
The purpose of this working paper is to respond to all aspects of the Council request and provide both the context and substance of Global Environment Facility (GEF) support to forests since the inception of the GEF. The paper focuses on GEF support to forest ecosystems in boreal, temperate, tropical, sub-tropical, arid and semi-arid zones. It uses the terminology applied by the global environmental conventions when discussing decisions and recommendations of these conventions as they relate to sustainable forest management. Outside of these instances, the paper draws on forest-related terminology agreed at the United Nations Forum on Forests (UNFF) and the results of the Expert Meetings on Harmonizing Forest-related Definitions to ensure clarity.
The first section discusses how forests are addressed in the United Nations Convention on Biological Diversity (UNCBD), then section two summarizes the context of sustainable forest management at the international level, touching upon the status of forests and the state of international policy. In section three, the paper discusses the GEF role in forests and provides an overview on available instruments the GEF has at its disposal to support sustainable forest management. |
