The formulation and implementation of a national forest policy is not a simple linear process of common discussions and negotiations because the permanently changing context requires a continuous adaptation of the involved stakeholders. The process of the forest policy reform in Kyrgyzstan (central Asia, a former USSR republic), based on participation, clearly shows two distinct periods: a first period of policy formulation characterized by collaborative learning of the participants of the processand the second period of policy implementation and adaptation, when the various stakeholders redefined their own strategies and roles. Although the process is still ongoing, this example demonstrates that participation is not only a procedure for deliberative democracy or collaborative learning, it is also a means for re-appropriation of power by the stronger stakeholders in a changing context.
