| This working paper seeks to define sustainable forest management(SFM) in terms of how different management objectives should be balanced and the spatial and temporal dimensions involved. The technical feasibility of SFM is discussed with reference to experiences in different regions. Its financial and institutional feasibility is also covered with regard to factors leading to market and policy failure. International aid to the forest sector is analyzed according to how it can contribute to the sustainable management of different forest types. | ||
