Enabling Policy Frameworks for Successful Community-Based Resource Management: Proceedings from the Ninth Workshop on Community-Based Management of Forestlands
Workshop on Community-Based Management of Forestlands, 9th (Honolulu, United States, 05-Feb-2001–02-Mar-2001)
2001
Abstract
While our knowledge of the physical and biological world has grown exponentially in recent years, environmental management is still largely characterized by decision-making under conditions of uncertainty. It is increasingly recognized that this uncertainty requires a new kind of collaboration between scientists and decision-makers, between those who gather knowledge and those who apply it to everyday problems. This new collaboration should assume a continuous, two-way flow of information, punctuated with periodic evaluations and policy adjustments based on new insights gained from the field. Documenting the lessons learned from such "action research" was a key objective of the writing workshop, "Policy Frameworks to Enable Successful Community-Based Resource Management Initiatives," held at the East-West Center in Honolulu, Hawaii between 5 February and 2 March 2001.
