Abstract
This paper contributes to the first thematic area by using a case study of Kyrgyzstan to show how access to forests in West and Central Asia can contribute to poverty reduction through sustainable livelihood approaches. The study supports FAO's Forestry Outlook Study which aims to better understand the dynamics and relationships between societies and nature and particularly the role of the forestry sector in socio-economic development.
