Given this interest, and the potential impacts of such initiatives, it is important to learn from the many practical experiences in applying integrated landscape management throughout the world. we need to better understand what these experiences achieve for sustainable and fair development. we must develop adaptive approaches to achieve change in complex, multi-stakeholder settings. productive, “triple-win” landscapes are good for food, people and ecosystems – but are there really no trade-offs between these goals? what does it mean for family farmers or small-scale foresters? where do forests and trees fit in? such a context makes this issue of ETFRN News a timely one. it brings together 29 papers by practitioners from all over the world who highlight the successes and challenges of applying landscape approaches. They provide food for thought and, we hope, a source of inspiration for those with an interest in productive landscapes. This issue of ETFRN News results from a partnership between Tropenbos international (TBI) and the centre for learning on sustainable agriculture (ILEIA), part of the agricultures network dedicated to landscapes that is supported by the swedish international Develop- ment cooperation agency (sida). Together, TBI and ILEIA aim to develop an integrated perspective on agriculture and forest approaches to improve the livelihoods of rural communities and build multifunctional landscapes. This is achieved through activities and publications. This ETFRN News is published in association with a special issue of ILEIA’s Farming Matters, “Farmers in their landscapes,” and with the agricultures network’s regional magazines for latin america, west africa, india and china. we thank the authors for their contributions and the editorial team for compiling these into an interesting volume.

This project has sought to document the real and anticipated impacts of decentralisation on forest management, forest community livelihoods, and economic development at the provincial and district levels. During the initial phase of this research, CIFOR conducted case studies in nine kabupaten or districts, in four provinces: Riau, East Kalimantan, Central Kalimantan, and West Kalimantan. These case studies were carried out in 2000, with follow up visits to some districts conducted in early 2001. As such, the findings presented in the present report and the companion case studies reflect the conditions and processes that existed in the study districts during the initial phase of Indonesia’s decentralisation process. The following reports have been produced by this project. The first of these represents a synthesis of the major findings from the nine case studies, accompanied by a historical analysis of forest administration and forestry sector development in Indonesia, and a discussion of the origins and legal-regulatory basis of the nation’s ongoing decentralisation process.

Participatory approaches to forest management have been promoted as a means of returning rights historically removed, and as a way of managing natural resources sustainably, fairly, and to improve livelihoods in communities. Top-down models of community-based forest management take the perspective that if people feel ownership over, have a voice in decisions about, and can benefit from surrounding ecosystems, then they will be motivated to maintain and protect them. However, even participatory approaches, such as community-based forest management, may not always result in clear positive outcomes for involvement in decision making and forest conservation. We examine whether an Indonesian government initiative for community-based forest management was positively associated with community members' participation in local decision making and support for conservation and sustainable management of forest resources, in the context of state-owned lands.

This work is dedicated to my national park for sustainable management ABSTRACT Gunung Palung National Park (GPNP) represents the biodiversity of tropical forests remaining in Kalimantan Island. However, the natural ecosystem has been threatened by human impact. This study aimed to identify the deforestation process inside the national park by imagery analysis of Landsat TM (1992), Landsat ETM+ (1999), and SPOT5 (2004), and to find the driving forces behind agricultural expansions by interviews to randomly selected households living nearby GPNP. Supervised classification method combined with visual interpretation and field-based analysis was applied to map land cover changes and specify the human impact.

    Indigenous Social Movements and Ecological Resilience: Lessons from the Dayak of Indonesia Janis B. Alcorn and Antoinette G. Royo, Eds. Peoples, Forest and Reefs (PeFoR) Program Discussion Paper Series Biodiversity Support Program Washington, D.C. The Biodiversity Support Program (BSP) is a consortium of World Wildlife Fund, The Nature Conservancy, and World Resources Institute, funded by the United States Agency for International Development (USAID). BSP's mission is to promote conservation of the world's biological diversity. We believe that a healthy and secure living resource base is essential to meet the needs and aspirations of present and future generations. BSP’s Peoples, Forests and Reefs Program (PeFoR) is designed to: (1) develop participatory methods for applying geomatics technologies for mapping and land-use planning in order to improve community-based natural resource management; (2) assist community groups and NGOs to apply these methods more widely; (3) clarify and strengthen the legal status of indigenous rights to ancestral lands; (4) assess the spatial overlap between indigenous peoples and forests; and (5) link these findings to the national policy level through workshops, publication of case studies, and other forms of outreach. BSP’s Kelompok Masyarakat Pengelola Sumberdaya Alam [Community Natural Resource Managers’ Program] (KEMALA) in Indonesia aims to: (1) build coalitions of well-informed, technically competent, creative, politically-active NGOs concerned with community-based natural resource management; and (2) support decentralized structures within which they can participate in political life and decision-making in future decades. BSP's PeFoR Program Discussion Papers are circulated to encourage discussion and comment among interested parties.
