Synopsis (short abstract) This issue of Unasylva looks at various aspects of the overall financing situation in forestry and highlights areas where additional progress could and should be made. The issue draws heavily on material prepared for the June 1996 Workshop on Financial Mechanisms and Sources of Finance for Sustainable Forestry, held in Pretoria, South Africa. The workshop was an initiative of the Governments of South Africa and Denmark, together with the United Nations Development Programme, within the ambit of the activities organized by the Intergovernmental Panel on Forests, established by the UN Commission on Sustainable Development.

    Non-thematic issue 1999
    Also available in:
    This issue of Unasylva contains, as promised in the previous edition, additional articles on sustainable mountain development. These articles help to complete the focus on the topic and should also help to promote interest in the recently declared International Year of the Mountain (2000) for which FAO has been designated lead agency status within the United Nations system.

    Decentralization and devolution in forestry 1999
    Also available in:
    Attempts to shift management functions and powers can take any number of forms on a sliding scale from complete central control of forest resources to complete decentralization and devolution of both authority and power - although solutions at either extreme of the continuum are generally inappropriate. This issue of Unasylva examines a number of topics related to the redistribution of authority and power for forests and forestry. For the most part, the issue springs from the debate advanced at the International Seminar on Decentralization and Devolution of Forest Management in Asia and the Pacific, held in Davao, the Philippines, from 30 November to 4 December 1998. A number of articles in this issue were originally presented at the seminar, the organizers of which have been instrumental in the shaping of this Unasylva issue - their assistance is appreciated.
