Social and Ecological Synergy: Local Rulemaking, Forest Livelihoods, and Biodiversity ConservationBackgroundDecentralized forest management with local community involvement is often viewed as a way to incentivize sustainable forest use through enhanced local knowledge, shared accountability, and perceived legitimacy.
