Looking for ways to set up associations for private forest owners in the Western Balkan countries
The
European Forest Institute will assess preconditions for establishing
self-supporting interest associations of private forest owners in the Western
Balkan region. The starting point of the project ‘PRIFOR’ is
the lack of voluntary private forest owners’ associations in the six Western
Balkan countries: Consequently the project aims to evaluate the
preconditions for the formation of self-supporting interest associations of
private forest owners in the Western Balkan region. It also aims at a better
understanding of private forest owners and common forest property regimes
(community forests) with regard to the following acreage and geography,
silviculture and economic management (in comparison to state forests),
legislation and socio-economic characteristics.
