Reflections
on the Social Dimension of Verification in FLEGT processes
Marcus Colchester
The main response in Europe to the trade in illegal timbers has been
to develop a process of 'Forest Law Enforcement, Governance and Trade'
(FLEGT). The scheme requires verification of the legality of timbers.
How will such a process ensure that the rights and needs of local
communities, indigenous peoples, women and workers are taken into
account? This short 'thinkpiece', presented to an experts' meeting
of the VERIFOR project in April 2006, explores some of the dilemmas.
Other materials presented at the same meeting can be accessed at:

than a threat to forest peoples.
