While wishing all of our friends and colleagues a happy and successful 2007, we present this third edition of ForLive Highlights. Among other matters, in this edition we report on the current situation of forest management in Bolivia ten years after the approval of the new Forest Law and the importance of the forest in terms of economic benefits for small farmers in Ecuador. The harvesting of palm fibre from Aphandra natalia by small farmers provides and example of a promising initiative of sustainable forest management in the Amazon.
As in previous editions of this bulletin, we also report on progress of ForLive over the past quarter. The most prominent aspect of this period has been the justification of the selection of the case studies to be considered as promising examples of forest management and reflection on the experience gained during the project over the past two years. In this way, we seek to learn lessons from the sustainable forest management initiatives of small farmers in the Amazon.
We hope that the information provided is of interest. With our best regards
ForLive Team
