The Youth and United Nations Global Alliance (YUNGA) was created in 2009 to educate youth on environmental matters. YUNGA works on a number of thematic areas including agriculture, biodiversity, climate change, energy, forests, food security, hunger, nutrition, oceans, water, and the Millennium Development Goals. Activities range from educational policy, awareness-raising, capacity building programmes, education materials, resource packs, international competitions, challenge badges and other programmes intended to inspire active participation.
The First International Workshop on Community Forestry in Africa was held in the Gambia in February 1999. It began the process of bringing together all of the African experiences in community-based natural resource management. Until the Gambia workshop, those looking for documentation of existing initiatives would have looked towards Asia for information about best practices and experience in participatory forest management.
The paper describes the general physical and demographic features of eastern Sorsogon where Gracilaria farming is being developed. Gracilaria, like the Eucheuma seaweeds prior to farming, are presently gathered from the wild stocks. Unless some form of management is introduced, the natural seaweed beds will be depleted due to intensive collection for cash income by the fishing community.

Over the last decade, sustainable developmetn has become a universal watchword, and a major catalyst for the reorientation of legal texts. Profound legal changes have been triggered by the transformation of socialist economies and the accelerating globalization of trade and economy.
Bнастоящем десятом по счету обзоре Состояние лесов мира подробно излагается непреложная истина: леса, лесное хозяйство и лесная продукция играют важнейшую роль в процессе устойчивого развития. Обзор Состояние лесов мира публикуется каждые два года. На протяжении всей истории экономическое развитие сопровождалось обезлесением. Именно в связи с обезлесением в лесоведении появилась и эволюционировала концепция устойчивого развития.
