    Sustainable forest management (SFM)
    certification emerged in the 1980s and 1990s as a mechanism
    to promote responsible forest use and as an alternative to
    boycotts of forest products amid growing concerns about
    forest degradation and destruction. Since then, forest
    certification has evolved into a multifaceted market-based
    mechanism to promote compliance with sets of ecological,
    social, and economic criteria to enhance sustainability.

    Community forestry (CF) and Community Protected Areas (CPA) have been established for well over a decade in Siem Reap province. The study investigates the socioeconomic benefits gained by CPA and CF members from their participation in Community-Based Resources Management CBNRM. In CBNRM, local communities are responsible for the management of local resources. However, many CBNRM initiatives in Cambodia are more controlled by government than by communities. The report analyzes and compares two communities and the results of their CBNRM practices.

    This paper seeks to clarify how
    valuation should be conducted to answer specific
    environmental policy questions. In particular, it looks at
    how valuation should be used to examine four distinct
    aspects of the value of ecosystems: 1) Determining the value
    of the total flow of benefits from ecosystems; 2)
    Determining the net benefits of interventions that alter
    ecosystem conditions: 3) Examining how the costs and

    The aim of this study is to improve
    understanding of how biological resource conservation
    concerns can be better incorporated into projects and
    programs that primarily address the objective of rural
    development rather than environmental conservation. A
    multi-disciplinary study team was assembled and six
    background papers produced, along with the main overview
    paper. The six papers were on: 1) measuring biodiversity,

    This paper presents a somewhat novel
    approach to explore the economic contribution of ecosystems.
    It develops linked models to capture connections between
    resource stocks and flows and the resulting microeconomic
    and macroeconomic impacts. A bioeconomic model is developed
    that is imbedded into a computable general equilibrium (CGE)
    model. Incorporating imperfect regulation, the bioeconomic
    model characterizes optimal policies, while the CGE model

    The Latin America and Caribbean Region
    has been at the forefront of global biodiversity
    conservation, dedicating 20 percent of its land to protected
    areas compared to 13 percent in the rest of the developing
    world. This progress has stretched available budgets for
    conservation with estimates indicating that a twofold
    increase would be necessary to achieve optimal management of
    existing protected areas based on 2008 data. Recognizing the
