This study has been commissioned by FAO to look at sustainable livelihoods approaches to access to natural resources in mountain areas. We concentrate on access by poorer and marginalized groups to policy processes whereby long-term sustainable access to resources is achieved.

Le prsent numro d'Unasylva est une introduction au congrs. Il ne contient pas les documents qui seront prsents Mexico, mais un entretien avec M. Edouard Saouma, Directeur gnral de la FAO, et cinq articles qui, on l'espre, constitueront une toile de fond utile pour le congrs. Les sujets de ces articles - la foresterie au-del de l'an 2000, l'agriculture itinrante, l'agroforesterie, la foresterie communautaire et l'aspect social des contrats d'exploitation forestire - ne couvrent nullement l'ensemble des thmes qui seront traits Mexico.

This special issue of Unasylva has two main objectives. It brings to our readers an edited selection of some of the position papers of the important 4th Session of the FAO Committee on Forestry Development in the Tropics and, in doing, this, it emphasizes FAO's principal concern in the field of forestry: how to make the best and wisest use of man's least understood ecological formation, the moist tropical forest.

This training package examines conflict within forest resource use and community-based forest management and offers strategies for managing it. It aims to support diverse and multiple forest user groups to manage conflicts that inevitably arise in the protection, use and control of forest resources. It has been prepared primarily for trainers who help people and organizations that work collaboratively in community forestry.
