dc.descriptionGood tree and forest management in and around cities, associated with good governance, enabling policies, participatory approaches and capacity building of stakeholders should lead to convincing and promising results. An important result for poor dwellers is income generation from the production of service wood, fuelwood, non-wood forest products and foodstuffs. Activities towards reduction of air pollution and other environmental improvement can also generate income and reduce expen ses. The policy and legal conditions for promoting forest and tree cover in urban environments and the constraints on the use of and access to these resources are different from those of forestry in rural areas. As part of its mandate to support countries in addressing poverty alleviation and food security, FAO assists in building the capacities of national policy and decision-makers and institutions in order to address legal, economic, social and environmental issues related to urbanization and urban environment with regard to trees and forests. However, so far little information has been published on this subject generally, and in particular on the legal and institutional aspects of urban and peri-urban forestry and greening (UPFG).
