Resumen

Descripción

This report provides an overview of the long-term trends in forestry in Central Africa in the context of current and emerging economic, social, institutional and technological changes in the subregion, as well as outside influences. Central Africa is the most forest-rich subregion in Africa and is thus a major object of divergent and conflicting interests. In recent years it has become the foremost source of tropical timber in Africa. As the second largest block of tropical forest in the wor ld, it is also critical in conserving biological diversity and mitigating global climate change.
