Abstract

In the last quarter century, a growing body of scientific research has revealed
that the world’s forests are under stress. Data collected on biodiversity, species decline,
and deforestation reveal widespread deterioration of forest ecosystem structure and function.
Research on social and community conditions has documented increasing uncertainty about the ability of
forest-dependent communities to rely on forests for their livelihoods.
