Program on Future Pathways to Sustainable Forest Management

As an independent policy research organization with access to scholars and practitioners throughout the conservation community, the Institute is well-suited to serve as an incubator for innovation in the protection and sustainable management of forests, and as a catalyst for change in the policies and institutions that actually determine how the nation's forests are managed.

The activities in this program are designed to take a global view, and examine what big-picture economic, demographic, social and cultural trends will mean for conservation. Through research and convening diverse groups of people, we search for new ideas to address emerging challenges in sustainable forest management and forest conservation.
