IUFRO The Advocate for Forest Science.
During the fourth Ministerial Conference on the Protection of Forests (MCPFE) held in Vienna in 2003, a decisive step towards the inclusion of social and cultural values in SFM was taken leading to the adoption of Vienna Resolution 3. Against this background, IUFRO agreed to elaborate scientific guidelines for the implementation of Vienna Resolution 3. These guidelines were presented at the fifth MCPFE in Warsaw from 5-7 November 2007 and comprise strategies and actions that should be implemented primarily by National Forest Programmes and Rural Development Plans.
