protect intact forests, manage working forests more effectively, and restore deforested lands.
Other Information:
Focuses on forest-rich regions, using spatial and other forest-related information to stimulate, support, and monitor action
that promotes more sustainable forest management. Target outcomes likely before 2012 include: - Indonesia publishes a credible
deforestation baseline and formulated, workable policies for reducing deforestation as well as a program to distribute funds
from reduced deforestation credits. - Democratic Republic of Congo produces and shares accurate, up-to-date maps on all forest
titles, allowing only capable and responsible companies to legally convert their old logging titles into new forest concessions;
ensures a credible way of engaging local communities in consultations on this process.
