China and the Asia Pacific
China's
forest product imports have grown dramatically in recent years
to feed both booming global demand for Chinese products such as
furniture and panels as well as growing local demand. This trade
is magnifying problems of unsustainable harvesting, illegal logging
and negative impacts on local peoples’ rights and livelihoods
in many producer countries across the globe. To better understand
and address these issues, Forest Trends is collaborating with CIFOR,
the Center for Chinese Agricultural Policy and a host of other
organizations in China and the broader East Asian region. For
