Social aspects of restoration |
We like the way the articles address ecological planning strategies at different scales... Costa Rica example shows government planning and policies and US example of Adaptive forest management looks at citizen involvement in monitoring... We thought reading the two together will help to highlight the complexity of the social issues surrounding success of restoration projects and the advantage of taking a multi-scale approach. |
