| dc.description | This paper is a guide to designing and drafting community forestry contracts. These legal documents underlie many community forestry development projects. In forest management projects, governments and businesses can collaborate with communities in several ways, including through consultation, commercial transactions, and recognition of rights.1 Consultation might involve seeking community opinion or even approval of plans and priorities. Commercial transactions might include hiring local worker s, buying local forest products or environmental services, patronizing local businesses, or leasing local land. Recognition of rights might involve honoring traditional forest access, granting communities formal title or rights to use forestland, accepting legally enforceable obligations to manage land for the benefit of the community, or returning some of the income from the land to the community. Many projects embrace two or three kinds of collaboration. | |
