this MFW will be an approach to restoration which requires coordination between sectors intended to promote productive multifunctional territories characterised by an optimal balance negotiated with local actors in terms of supply of economic, social and environmental benefits. This internationally-recognized vision for Forest and Landscape Restoration (FLR) allows the promotion of synergies between the three Rio conventions and can contribute to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG).

Globally, according to FRA 2000, planted forests account ed for only 5% of forest area, but up to 35% of industrial roundwood supply. This is anticipated to rise to 40-44% by 2020. Planted forests reflect a higher social, environmental and economic importance than their area would suggest. Many countries have existing planted forest data that is not based upon forest inventory, is incomplete and often outdated. Thus it is difficult to measure and plan the quantity and quality of planted forest resources and the provision of goods and services that they supply.

Les forêts méditerranéennes d’Algérie, Liban, Maroc, Tunisie et Turquie couvrent une superficie totale de près de 19 millions d’hectares. Ces forêts ont été et seront soumises de manière croissante à des pressions anthropiques (surpâturage, collecte de bois de chauffe, incendies, conversions agricoles, etc.) et aux effets dus au changement climatique (augmentation des températures et de la fréquence des événements extrêmes, diminution des précipitations, attaques parasitaires, etc.) Ainsi, des phénomènes de déforestation et de dégradation forestière sont observés.

Para que produzcan los resultados apetecidos, las actividades de ordenacin de cuencas hidrogrficas han de incorporar hidrologa forestal, conservacin de suelos y aguas y planificacin del uso de la tierra en un marco lgico ms amplio que tome en consideracin no slo los fenmenos fsicos, sino tambin los factores econmicos, sociales e institucionales.

Es ampliamente reconocido que una de las principales causas de la deforestación y la degradación de los bosques radica en el alto costo de oportunidad del manejo forestal sostenible (MFS), lo que suele conllevar a un cambio de uso del suelo hacia alternativas como la agricultura, la agro-industria o la ganadería, que producen mayores ingresos para los dueños o usuarios de los bosques. el documento se estructura en cinco secciones.

A complete thirty-three-page report stating the overall situation of data related to fuelwood in Togo. The report is made up of eleven sections dedicated to the methodologies used, the availability of data, production figures, consumption figures, market circuits, pricing, supply and demand figures, main players, etc. Moreover, an evaluation of data collected is given as well as comments as to how to improve the overall statistics collection process.

To address the needs of individual regions, such as LAC, more detailed regional and sub regional strategies are needed to ensure that forestry contributes fully to the challenges of poverty, inequity, environmental degradation and sustainable development. This report presents such a strategy for four Andean Countries of South America, that is, Bolivia, Colombia, Ecuador and Peru. Venezuela could not be included because of time constraints, and the difficulties of obtaining a suitable consultant to carry out the field work.
