The Sustainable Forestry Handbook

---

The Sustainable Forestry Handbook provides forest managers with the necessary tools to understand and
put into practice new standards for forest management. It is based around two major international
initiatives for the promotion of sustainable forest management, which were developed by the Forest
Stewardship Council (FSC) and the International Tropical Timber Organization (ITTO). These are the
main approaches which have been promoted, especially in the tropics, by recent market and policy
initiatives. The Sustainable Forestry Handbook also provides an environmental management system
framework, based on ISO 14001, to assist implementation of the standards.

The handbook provides a framework for understanding, planning and implementing improved
forest management techniques. It gives a method for identifying what activities are necessary,
provides guidance on how to approach them and points the way to further sources of information.
Case studies describe examples of existing situations; common problems are highlighted and some
possible solutions suggested.

The Sustainable Forestry Handbook is ideal for use by forest managers and forest management teams
in tropical, developing countries where up-to-date information and guidance can be hard to find. It
aims to provide basic and comprehensive guidance on practical methods in meeting international
standards. It will be of particular help for forest organizations which are seeking independent
certification of their forest management.

Some of the methods described in The Sustainable Forestry Handbook, especially in the social areas,
may be new to forest managers and even to some researchers. They are included because it is
important for the forest manager to be aware of current thinking about sustainable forest
management
