dc.descriptionFAO has been coordinating global forest resources assessments every five to ten years since 1946 (FAO, 2006), with the objective to provide a periodic global and uniform picture of existing forests, derived trends and statistics. Especially FAO’s periodically reported deforestation rates enjoy a high degree of public attention and are widely cited in literature. The estimates of FAO’s Global Forest Resources Assessment (FRA) programme are largely based on national statistics and inventory report s, which contain detailed information on the forests of individual countries reported by each government.
