This report specifically addresses the potential dilemma of trade-offs between poverty reduction and environmental protection. It seeks to improve the diagnosis of forest problems and facilitate the prescription and application of solutions by focusing on both the causes and consequences of forest conversion to agriculture and on the nature and location of forest poverty. The first section is diagnostic, examining the drivers and consequences of deforestation and forest poverty. The second part looks at how governance, institutions, and policies shape those drivers. It identifies opportunities for win-win policies. In particular, anything that boosts labor demand outside agriculture will tend to reduce both poverty and deforestation. Additionally, promotion of some kinds of agroforestry can help to improve the ecological functions of degraded forests while boosting farm output and employment. The report offers a systematic framework for thinking about how to integrate forest management with rural development in a sustainable way.en-USCC BY 3.0 IGOABATEMENTAGRICULTURAL EXPANSIONAGRICULTURAL FRONTIERAGRICULTURAL OUTPUTAGRICULTURAL PRODUCTSAGRICULTUREAGROFORESTRYAMPHIBIANAMPHIBIAN SPECIESANNUAL DEFORESTATIONBEARBIODIVERSITYBIODIVERSITY CONSERVATIONBIODIVERSITY LOSSBIODIVERSITY LOSSESBIODIVERSITY PROTECTIONBRAZILIAN AMAZONCARBONCARBON DIOXIDECARBON DIOXIDE EMISSIONSCASH CROPSCENTER FOR INTERNATIONAL FORESTRY RESEARCHCLIMATECLIMATE CHANGECOLLECTIVE ACTIONCOMMERCIAL LOGGINGCOMMON PROPERTYCOMMUNITYCOMMUNITY FORESTCOMMUNITY FOREST MANAGEMENTCOMMUNITY FORESTRYCOMMUNITY FORESTSCONSERVATION ACTIONSCONSERVATION PROJECTSDEFORESTATIONDEFORESTATION RATESDEGRADATIONDEGRADED FORESTSDRY SEASONECONOMIC DEVELOPMENTECONOMIC VALUEECONOMICSECONOMIES OF SCALEECOSYSTEMECOSYSTEM MANAGEMENTECOSYSTEMSEFFICIENT REGULATIONENVIRONMENTALENVIRONMENTAL DAMAGEENVIRONMENTAL DAMAGESENVIRONMENTAL ECONOMICSENVIRONMENTAL ISSUESENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENTENVIRONMENTAL PROBLEMSENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTIONENVIRONMENTAL VALUESEXPLOITATIONEXTERNALITIESEXTINCTIONEXTINCTIONSFAUNAFORESTFOREST AREASFOREST CHANGEFOREST CONCESSIONSFOREST CONDITIONSFOREST CONSERVATIONFOREST CONVERSIONFOREST COVERFOREST DEGRADATIONFOREST DESTRUCTIONFOREST DWELLERSFOREST ESTATEFOREST EXPLOITATIONFOREST FIRESFOREST FRAGMENTATIONFOREST GOVERNANCEFOREST LANDFOREST LOSSFOREST MANAGEMENTFOREST MANAGERSFOREST OWNERSFOREST OWNERSHIPFOREST POLICYFOREST PRODUCTSFOREST REGULATIONSFOREST RESOURCESFOREST SECTORFOREST STEWARDSHIPFOREST STRATEGYFOREST TYPESFOREST USEFORESTRYFUELFUELWOODGLOBAL CLIMATE CHANGEGREENHOUSE GASESILLEGAL LOGGINGINCOMELAND COVERLAND MANAGEMENTLAND MANAGERSLAND OWNERSHIPLAND RIGHTSLAND USELAND-USELEOPARDLOGGINGLOGGING CONCESSIONSMAMMAL SPECIESMEDIATIONNATIONAL PARKNATURAL FORESTNATURAL FOREST MANAGEMENTNATURAL FORESTSOILOPPORTUNITY COSTSPALMPASTUREPASTURESPLANTPLANT SPECIESPLANTATION FORESTRYPOLLINATIONPOLLINATORSPOLLUTIONPOPULATION DENSITIESPOPULATION DENSITYPOVERTY ALLEVIATIONPRESENT VALUEPRIVATE FORESTSPRIVATE PROPERTYPRODUCTIVITYPROPERTY RIGHTSPUBLIC GOODSRAINFALLRANCHERSREMOTE FORESTSRESERVESRIVERROAD CONSTRUCTIONROAD NETWORKROADSROUTERURAL DEVELOPMENTSAVANNASAVANNA WOODLANDSSAVANNASSECONDARY FORESTSSOILSSPECIESSTATE FORESTSSUBTROPICAL FORESTSSUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENTSUSTAINABLE FORESTRYSUSTAINABLE MANAGEMENTSUSTAINABLE MANAGEMENT OF FORESTSTENURETIMBERTIMBER EXPLOITATIONTIMBER PRICESTIMBER RESOURCESTREETREESTROPICAL DEFORESTATIONTROPICAL FORESTTROPICAL FORESTSWAGESWATERSHEDWEATHER PATTERNSWILDLIFEWILLINGNESS TO PAYWOODWOODLANDSWorld Bank10.1596/978-0-8213-6735-3
