Fifth (19 th ) meeting of the UNECE/FAO Team of Specialists on Monitoring Sustainable Forest Management Palais des Nations, Geneva, Switzerland, February 2013 Assessment of SFM Kit Prins

UNECE/FAO Team of Specialists on Monitoring Sustainable Forest Management Outline Background: –Why assess SFM? –Principles of proposed method –How it would work? Tasks for sub-group work

UNECE/FAO Team of Specialists on Monitoring Sustainable Forest Management Why assess SFM at country level? Evidence based policy making Communication: a clear story for the sector and the world Monitoring progress and learning from others Get maximum benefit from descriptive SoEF data

UNECE/FAO Team of Specialists on Monitoring Sustainable Forest Management Three questions to be answered (all at level of country or subnational level when forest policy responsibility at that level) What are the areas of concern with regards to sustainability? How are the areas of concern being addressed?

UNECE/FAO Team of Specialists on Monitoring Sustainable Forest Management Principles of the proposed method Based on agreed pan-European criteria and indicators of SFM Objectivity and transparency Comprehensiveness (all criteria covered, all indicators considered) Take account of national circumstances: no single ideal situation, rather « areas of concern » Participation of national correspondents Address policies and institutions

UNECE/FAO Team of Specialists on Monitoring Sustainable Forest Management Each pan-European indicator is assigned to one of three types: Context: descriptive, structural, impossible to change in the short to medium term Assessment: used to identify areas of concern, when they go over a warning level Background: not usable because of data quality, lack of real meaning or other reasons

UNECE/FAO Team of Specialists on Monitoring Sustainable Forest Management How it would work? Data collection as part of SoEF Calculation of size-neutral indicators, identification of countries/indicators where warning level surpassed Dialogue with national correspondents (measured warning level is only first filter, not final judgement): –Accuracy of data –Background and context –Policy response Publication of agreed « areas of concern » - with policy response - and regional synthesis

UNECE/FAO Team of Specialists on Monitoring Sustainable Forest Management TASKS OF THE SUBGROUPS
