Synopsis (short abstract) This issue of Unasylva commemorates 50 years of FAO's experience in and commitment to international forestry development. Notwithstanding this focus, the issue is essentially forward-looking. Articles written by senior officers of the Forestry Department consider key issues facing world forestry today, and challenges for the future. Lessons are also drawn from past experience. In this respect, the interview with Ren Fontaine, one of the original FAO foresters, is of particular interest, as are t he short "reflections" of past members of the Forestry Department that are liberally sprinkled through the issue.

    The Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) Advisory Committee on Paper and Wood Products (ACPWP) was established in 1996 as a result of the merger of the FAO Advisory Committee on Pulp and Paper and the Wood-based Panels Committee. The combination of these two committees allowed for a global approach to the common problems of the forest products industry and reflected the current trend in the industry to group those two sectors together.
