Center for International Forestry Research (CIFOR) in collaboration with the East-West
Center sponsored in 1999 a competition to bring attention to innovations promoting
shared learning that allows diverse interests in forest management to adapt to
changing environmental and social circumstances. We identified nine outstanding
"stories" of how adaptive, collaborative management is working in practice and
invited practitioners to report on the lessons they have learned from using ACM-types
of approaches, the outcomes of its application, and innovations for overcoming
the constraints to its use. |
