DocumentData collection and analysis related to non-wood forest products - a pilot study in Suriname 2002
Also available in:
No results found.The project Data Collection and Analysis for Sustainable Forest Management in ACP Countries - Linking National and International Efforts (GCP/INT/679/CE) was carried out in the context of the European Commission (EC) - FAO Partnership Programme in order to promote the sustainable use of trees and forests in African and Caribbean countries. The project aimed to contribute to the development of policies which would integrate in a balanced way the socio-economic and ecological aspects of the forest ry sector.1 The use of non-wood forest products (NWFP) was studied through two main activities: 1. The documentation of information on the socio-economic importance and ecological impact of the use of NWFP in African and Caribbean countries. The results are presented in various working papers (FAO, 2001; FAO, in prep.) and on the Internet.2 2. The development of methodologies for improved collection, analysis and maintenance of statistical data related to NWFP. These methodologie s should: • provide reasonable estimates on the production, consumption and trade in NWFP; • be widely applicable and relevant to other Caribbean countries; • be cost effective, flexible and feasible given the limited human resources available. Pilot studies on NWFP were carried out in Cameroon, Madagascar, Uganda, Suriname and Zimbabwe.
