Weiss, Charles | Kamenetzky, Mario | Ramesh, Jairam
The Forestry Development Project aims to establish the basis for the comprehensive conservation, development and use of Tunisia's forestry resources and provide for a doubling of current wood production by the end of the implementation period following environmentally sound practices. To this end, the project includes (a) forest exploitation and regeneration; (b) forest plantations and private tree planting; and (c) intensified forest management. Further to this, the project involves (d) forest pasture and range improvement and, finally, (e) institutional development and support. Apart from production and environmental benefits, which include project action in support of the government program to protect eight world threatened vertebrates, the project will have an important employment creating effect in rural areas.
