Resumen
Descripción
Regional collaboration provides a means for countries that face common problems to take effective action to achieve shared goals, thus bridging national and global efforts. Forests and watersheds cross national boundaries, and each country’s management has an impact on its region’s forest resources. Similarities in terms of forest types, economic development, language, culture and other factors may make it easier to reach consensus on steps for improving forest resource management at the regiona l level than at the global level. As examples in this issue of Unasylva show, regional groups may also be better able to agree on specifics of implementation.
