The authors, Russell Collier, Ben Parfitt and Donovan Woollard, focus on FSC® because its principles and criteria have the most detailed guidelines for bringing Indigenous peoples into forestry planning processes. The promise of FSC® is strong, but Indigenous peoples need good information in order to ensure that FSC® lives up to this promise.
Written for Indigenous leaders, technicians and community members, our book features a step-by-step description of FSC® certification, a series of illustrative case studies, and includes a list of important questions for different parties to consider throughout the certification process.
