The following information has been adapted from the FY03 OPIN Year-End Report: Status of Presidential Initiatives FY 2003. [pdf]
FY03 Initiative Description | |
Illegal logging destroys forest ecosystems, robs governments and communities of needed revenues, finances regional conflict, and acts as a disincentive to sustainable forest management. The Initiative Against Illegal Logging is the most comprehensive strategy yet undertaken by any nation to address this critical sustainable development challenge. |
