Abstract
VARGAS ISAZA, Olga Lucia. EVALUATION AND ITS CONTRIBUTION TO THE CONSERVATION OF FORESTS. Rev. Fac. Nac. Agron. Medellín [online]. 2005, vol.58, n.1, pp.2665-2683. ISSN 0304-2847.
The proposal of the Ministry of Environment, Housing, and Territorial Development of Colombia on how Forestry Zoning Plans (FZPs) should be conducted by the Autonomous Regional Corporations is analyzed; from which it can be affirmed that with the directives of the FZPs, it is not possible to obtain a sustainable zoning of forests and thereby acheive their conservation. Social Multicriteria Evaluation (SME), a technique that combines Institutional Analysis and Multicriteria Evaluation, allows overcoming this flaw; it us therefore recommended that SMEs be conducted instead of FZPs in areas requiring zoning.
Keywords : Forestry zoning plans; sustainable zoning; forests; conservation; Institutional analysis.
