This publication provides the presentation papers, workshop discussions, questions and answers and plenary discussion from a two-day conference held at Cardiff University in June 2001. The main aim of the conference was to outline the future direction for social forestry research and develop a broader perspective on issues connected with people and the environment. The conference provided the opportunity for a broad cross-section of government bodies, non-governmental organisations, academics, practitioners and researchers to exchange knowledge, experience and ideas in this important subject area.
