    Criteria and indicators (C&I) have emerged as a powerful tool in promoting sustainable forest management (SFM). Since the United Nations Conference on Environment and Development of Rio in 1992, several different international processes and initiatives have developed C&I as a framework for SFM. Use of C&I can provide structure and facilitate a common understanding of SFM at the national level. In addition, C&I can help to promote agreement on key issues, create a link to data/results needs and r esources required, serve as a reference framework for policy design, planning and programming, and facilitate the monitoring of results.

The Forest Management Bureau of the Philippines hosted the meeting. The Expert Consultation brought together 45 technical and policy experts representing 27 count ries and seven international organizations involved in the ongoing processes on criteria and indicators for sustainable forest management. It aimed to make recommendations for consideration by countries, C&I processes, UNFF and other international bodies and organizations involved in the work on C&I on the following issues, which served as objectives of the meeting: (1) developing a communication network among processes, countries and other relevant partners to provide a mechanism for exchange o f information, building on existing networks; (2) improving common understanding of concepts, terms and definitions related to criteria and indicators; (3) identifying common approaches, methods and protocols for collecting, storing and sharing data; (4) strengthening criteria and indicator processes and inter-process cooperation and sharing of information and know-how; and (5) analyzing the merits of forming an ad hoc international technical advisory group to address technical issues related to the development and implementation of criteria and indicators.
