3. Empowerment of community forestry groups to improve community bargaining power and sense of ownership in regards to forest management. This will be done
through greater recognition of local management rights and traditional knowledge in forest management, and through increased community access and responsibility in
forest utilization, especially for communities living in and near the Forest Area.
4. Revitalization of forestry business institutions aimed at scale adjustment, business efficiency, and global competitiveness in upstream and downstream processing.
b. Strengthening of forestry sector human resources . This will be achieved through
several steps, including: 1. Systematic and professional strengthening of forestry human resources to provide
sufficient numbers of competent employees to all levels upstream to downstream and all sectors public and private.
2. Development of the forestry training and educational system. Training and education in the forestry sector could be improved by involving formal academic institutions as
well as other public and private institutions Figure 30.
3. Improved standardization of qualifications and increased number of forestry professionals in all forest management organizations to increase the capacity of these
organizations to carry out their tasks. For public institutions, the emphasis will be on improved service, facilitation, regulatory functions, and creativity including the
ability to respond to advances in technology and science to produce goods and services.

4. Strengthened worker rights through a clear career and social security system that is based on expertise, innovation, creativity and performance. This will lead to a strong
work ethic and competitiveness in all areas of forest management.
c. Forest sector regulatory reform. This will be achieved through several steps, including:
1. Reform of regulations related to forest management will be carried out based on clear stakeholder rights and roles, and on principles of equitable benefit distribution.
The reform process will be transparent and participative and will accommodate the interests of various stakeholders in the context of sustainable forest management and
social welfare improvement.
2. Rights, roles and responsibility will be re-allocated, along with forest resource benefits, based on the land use classifications of areas. Regulations will be aimed at
developing sectoral and regional performance standards, criteria and indicators and an integrated Forest Area in the context of sustainable forest management and social
welfare improvement.
3. Transparent operating procedures and coordination systems between government levels, sectors, and countries will be adopted. These will create a system of
incentives to support sustainable forest management.
