Participatory Management of Forests And Protected Areas: A Trainer's Manual

112-page manual published by RECOFTC in 2008 and has a focus on participatory management of forests and Protected Areas. While many of the training sessions in the manual were developed within the context
of participatory or collaborative forest management, it is recognized that there is increasing interest
within many countries for capacity building in participatory PA management as well. Since many of
the processes and tools for both situations are similar, the training sessions in this manual, with some
adaptation, can apply to both forest PAs and forest areas that are not PAs. Mainly intended for managers in Africa and Asia.
