    On the basis of limited available information, this paper has looked at Liberia’s attempts to increase citizen participation in forest industry development with a view to increasing the benefits retained in the country. The emphasis seems to have been on making legal provisions for such participation. It is assumed that increased citizen participation is a valid goal and would lead to improving the sector’s contribution to Liberia’s development.
