Resumen

Descripción

In both Angola and Ecuador the lack of accurate and updatedinformation on the forest resources of the country has limitedgovernment possibilities to implement sectorial policies forsustainable forest management. In addition, assessments of forestresources have evolved from forest area and growing stockinformation to cover other key aspects of sustainable forestmanagement, such as biodiversity and ecosystem services; and bothcountries were lacking the technical capabilities to perform suchassessments at national level. To fill these gaps, support had alreadybeen provided through various projects implemented by FAO.This project had the aim to serve as bridging support, to strengthenthe previous efforts carried out, and to provide the means to start anew process.
