AbstractThis chapter addresses the concepts and methods to assess quantitative indicators of Climate-Smart Forestry (CSF) at stand and management unit levels. First, the basic concepts for developing a framework for assessing CSF were reviewed. The suitable properties of indicators and methods for normalization, weighting, and aggregation were summarized. The proposed conceptual approach considers the CSF assessment as an adaptive learning process, which integrates scientific knowledge and participatory approaches. Then, climate smart indicators were applied on long-term experimental plots to assess CSF of spruce-fir-beech mixed mountain forest. Redundancy and trade-offs between indicators, as well as their sensitivity to management regimes, were analyzed with the aim of improving the practicability of indicators. At the management unit level, the roles of indicators in the different phases of forest management planning were reviewed. A set of 56 indicators were used to assess their importance for management planning in four European countries. The results indicated that the most relevant indicators differed from the set of Pan-European indicators of sustainable forest management. Finally, we discussed results obtained and future challenges, including the following: (i) how to strengthen indicator selections and CSF assessment at stand level, (ii) the potential integration of CSF indicators into silvicultural guidelines, and (iii) the main challenges for integrating indicators into climate-smart forest planning.

The Paneuropean Operational Level Guidelines for Sustainable Forest Management (PEOLG) were adopted in 1998 by 37 signatory states and the EU in the wake of the 2nd Ministerial Conference on the Protection of Forests in Europe in Lisbon. These recommendations provide a limited insight on operational definitions of mode, extent and time scale of valuable measures in forest management and planning. In this paper a set of criteria and indicators at forest management unit level is proposed by means of a Pressure-State-Response (PSR) model. The demands for the development of the indicator set, the adapted PSR approach and the methodogy of the Delphi survey are demonstrated. The paper concludes with a discussion of experiences gained within the process of the development and the implications for the evaluation of sustainable forest management at forest management unit level.

Since the early 2000s, Forestry Department of Indonesia has been implementing the Forest Management Unit (FMU) development program. The existence of FMU can be seen as a prerequisite for the implementation of sustainable forest management and equitable. How FMU institution prospects can improve forest governance in Indonesia? The aim of this study is to explore the prospects of FMU institution to improve forest governance in Indonesia. The study used forestry governance dimensions of Mayers and Macqueen (2002) as an analytical tool. The study results showed that both conceptual and is based on the processes of development, FMU has accommodated most of the values of good forestry governance.

Kerinci is one of regency with the large forest, but sub sector of forestry contributes only 0,04% of GDPKerinci Regency. It’s may possibly by the weakness of forest management and policy of Kerinci RegencyGovernment. Forest production management unit (KPHP) Model Kerinci establishment is one of govermentefforts to achieve sustainable forest management. Therefore, we need research with purpose: (1) to analyzethe role of forest production management unit (KPHP) Model Kerinci in the regional development ofKerinci Regency; (2) to analyze the institutional of forest production management unit (KPHP) ModelKerinci; (3) to analyze region’s readiness forest production management unit (KPHP) Model Kerincidevelopment. The study was conducted in Kerinci Regency. Data were analyzed by total economic value(TEV), institutional analysis, and analytical hierarchy process (AHP). The results showed that the totaleconomic value of natural resources of KPHP Model Kerinci is Rp. 337.839.832.400 in a year, it’s meanthat sub sector of forestry potentially to contribute about 8,38% of GDP Kerinci Regency. To realize thetotal economic values of natural resources of KPHP Model Kerinci, it needs strong institutions. KerinciRegency is ready for KPHP Model Kerinci development, because it’s has the support from stakeholders.

A workshop about «Criteria and Indicators for Sustainable Forest Management in Switzerland» was organized by the Swiss Forest Agency, in order to enhance knowledge about the paneuropean criteria and indicators and their possible applications. The workshop results are to be used as recommendations for the discussions in progress about sustainable forest management targets and the need for future relevant scientific data. In particular, two criteria turned out to be insufficient for Swiss requirements: Maintenance, conservation and appropriate enhancement of biological diversity in forest ecosystems (Criterion 4), as well as Maintenance and appropriate enhancement of protective functions in forest management (Criterion 5). Further pertinent indicators were proposed. Additionally, there were many demands for giving more weight to «financial sustainability». The workshop concluded that there was a need to define targets for sustainable management of the Swiss forests and that better relations need to be created between international criteria and indicators and their application at the canton and management unit level.

The implementation of todays forest management that based on formal-scientific knowledge and technical knowledge seems to fail to protect the forest from deforestation and the environmental damage. Decolonialisation of western knowledge could give an opportunity to identify and find the knowledge and practices of indigenous people in sustainable forest management. Forest management based on the indigenous knowledge and practices is believed easy to be accepted by the indigenous community due to the knowledge and practice is known and ‘lived’ by them. The Atoni Pah Meto from West Timor has their own customary law in forest management that is knows as Bunuk. In the installation of Bunuk, there is a concencus among the community members to protect and preserve the forest through the vow to the supreme one, the ruler of the earth and the ancestors, thus, bunuk is becoming a le’u (sacred). Thus, the Atoni Meto will not break the bunuk due to the secredness. Adapting the bunuk to the modern forest management in the Atoni Meto areas could be one of the best options in protecting and preserving the forest.

Are there any common patterns in the transition processes from traditional and more or less sustainable forest management to exploitative use, which can regularly be observed both in central Europe and in the countries of the South (e.g. India or Indonesia)? Attempts were made with a time-space-model to typify those force fields, in which traditional sustainable forest management is undermined and is then transformed into a modern type of sustainable forest management. Although it is unlikely that the history of the North will become the future of the South, the glimpse into the northern past offers a useful starting point for the understanding of the current situation in the South, which in turn could stimulate the debate on development. For instance, the patterns which stand behind the conflicts on forest use in the Himalayas are very similar to the conflicts in the Alps. In the same way, the impact of socio-economic changes on the environment – key word ‹globalisation› – is often much the same. To recognize comparable patterns can be very valuable because it can act as a stimulant for the search of political, legal and technical solutions adapted to a specific situation. For the global community the realization of the way political-economic alliances work at the head of the ‹globalisationwave›can only signify to carry on trying to find a common language and understanding at the negotiation tables. On the lee side of the destructive breaker it is necessary to conserve and care for what survived. As it was the case in Switzerland these forest islands could once become the germination points for the genesis of a cultural landscape, where close-to-nature managed forests will constitute an essential element.

A group of international experts evaluated whether the aims and instruments of Swiss forest policy are suitable for the promotion of sustainable forest management based on the pan-European criteria. Approach and main results are presented as well as the method developed for the definition of sustainability indicators as an instrument for the evaluation of sectoral policies and the possibility of a transfer of methods and indicators on an international level.
