Working Together: Forest-Linked Small and Medium Enterprise Associations and Collective Action
Duncan Macqueen, et al.
This paper draws out some lessons on how and why forest enterprises work. It summarises research from Brazil, China, Guyana, India, South Africa and Uganda. The research found that lasting associations generally have a strong degree of autonomy. They usually have leaders with a track-record of social commitment. Most have gradually evolving sets of procedures that institutionalse the progress made by charismatic founders. Their focus is usually restricted to a few long-term issues.
