Two decades of forest investment best practice
1. We use the term SFM as embraced by the Collaborative Partnership on Forests (CPF) and stated in
the Non-legally Binding Instrument on all Types of Forests (NLBI) of the United Nations Forum on
Forests (UNFF). The Bali action plan of the UNFCCC employs the term Sustainable Management of
Forests (SMF).

deforestation and forest degradation in developing countries; and the role of conservation, sustainable
management of forests and enhancement of forest carbon stocks in developing countries’.
