The Dry Forest Zone (DFZ) project is a fiveyear
collaborative effort to foster an integrated
approach to forest stewardship and economic
development in eastern Oregon and northern
California. The DFZ project invests in enhancing a
range of capacities for community-based natural resource
management at multiple scales. By working
simultaneously at different geographic, social and
institutional levels, the DFZ project creates and connects
enabling conditions for transformative change.
At the mid-point of this project, the DFZ team and
partners have achieved important gains and learned
valuable lessons.
