Resumen
Descripción
Conflicts over forest resources limit the success of sustainable forest management initiatives such as forest and landscape restoration (FLR) efforts. They also impede inclusive and sustainable development that countries aspire for. Building sufficient human resources capable of effectively managing conflict by responding early and addressing the causes to turn conflicts into opportunities for positive change is therefore a priority.
The Asia-Pacific Forestry Commission and the third Asia Pacific Sector Outlook Study have highlighted the need to support and invest in regional and national capacity building on conflict resolution in forestry. In response to this, this training aims to strengthen the capacity of government officers and other key actors to address forest conflicts and provide the opportunity for exchanges and learning about experiences and best practices regarding conflict management in the region.
This training is implemented in collaboration with Consensus Building Institute (CBI) and RECOFTC. CBI are conflict experts who have more than 28 years of experience in facilitation, mediation, capacity building, citizen engagement, and organizational strategy and development to solve complex social, environmental, and economic challenges.
