This report reviews the types of contracts used in the management
of public forests. Agreements for forest utilization are analysed
along with contracts for the acquisition of goods and services. The
study illustrates the importance of an effective institutional and
legal framework. The key elements to consider when awarding
contracts are detailed, along with valuation, administration and
ensuring the terms of the contract are fulfilled. Special attention
is given to the importance of awarding contracts through a
transparent and competitive process.
If sustainable management of tropical forests is to be accomplished
and deforestation brought under control, the on-the-ground
performance of existing forest concessions, along with the
allocation of new concessions, will have to be strengthened. This
study examines the failures of forest concessions and the loss of
tropical forests due to mismanagement during the last two decades.
It also emphasizes the potential gains resulting from strengthening
the allocation, management, and supervision of concessions by
concentrating on improving procedures, introducing performance
incentives, and monitoring key performance elements.
