FAO Documento técnico de pesca 465: En el documento se examinan tanto los aspectos jurídicos como económicos de la gestión de cada una de las diferentes categorías de poblaciones de peces compartidas. Los análisis están basados principalmente en los resultados de la Consulta de Expertos Noruega/FAO sobre la Ordenación de poblaciones de peces compartidas, celebrada en octubre de 2002, y en particular en las conclusiones de los numerosos estudios de caso presentados en la consulta.
The preliminary conclusions put forward in this Rural Sector Note may be used as basis for further discussions between the Government and the World Bank to ascertain the mutual interest in any programme or project follow up.
Globally, according to FRA 2000, planted forests accounted 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 Many countries have existing planted forest data that is not based upon forest inventory, is incomplete and often outdated.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.
En el Marco Estratégico para la FAO 2000-2015 se establecen las cinco principales estrategias institucionales que ha de seguir la Organización. La estrategia D de la FAO, “Conservar y mejorar el uso sostenible de la base de recursos naturales”, se ha desglosado en dos objetivos estratégicos: D1 “Ordenación integrada de la tierra, el agua y los recursos pesqueros, forestales y genéticos” y D2 “Conservación, rehabilitación y desarrollo de los entornos expuestos a mayores riesgos”.
Situación de los bosques del mundo –que llega ahora a su sexta edición– presenta un panorama mundial del sector forestal en el que se ofrece la última informa-ción disponible sobre actividades y acontecimientos. Colaboraciones de organizaciones no gubernamen-tales (ONG), personas que actúan a título personal y funcionarios de la FAO ponen de relieve desafíos y oportunidades relacionados con algunas de las princi-pales cuestiones que están surgiendo actualmente.
The FAO Strategic Framework 2000-2015 identifies five major corporate strategies to be followed by the Organization. Corporate strategy D, “Conserving and Enhancing Sustainable use of the Natural Resource Base”, is broken down into two strategic objectives: D1 “Integrated Management of Land, Water, Fisheries, Forest and Genetic Resources” and D2 “Conservation, Rehabilitation and Development of Environments at the Greatest Risk”.

This publication reflects the outcome of an ambitious initiative to identify instances of exemplary forest management in the region and examine the core components of high quality forest management in an effort to illustrate good forest management to a wide audience and encourage others to take up some of the most promising ideas, methods and approaches. More than 170 nominations were received from 21 countries in the region. Twenty-eight case studies were selected.
The use of satellite imagery can substantially improve knowledge on changes in forest area as a result of deforestation, afforestation and natural forest expansion. This summary outlines some of the initial findings on forest land use and land-use change of a global remote sensing survey carried out to complement the country reporting process as part of the Global Forest Resources Assessments led by the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO).
This publication is about how to help people to deal with conflicts that are undermining or disrupting natural resource management, impeding development, and causing outbreaks of violence. It looks at how negotiation and consensus building can be used to manage conflict and build collaboration, and provides practical, step-by-step guidance on how to establish and manage a process of consensual negotiations involving multiple stakeholders. The guide is intended for practitioners working on participatory/collaborative natural resource management and rural livelihoods projects.
