dc.description.abstract | Part of year three of "The Forest Service and Communities: The Relationships Between Land and People in the Pacific Northwest Region" [Ecosystem Workforce Program Working Paper #72]. This document is one of three products created for the third year of the project, which are collectively classified as EWP Working Paper #95. Collaboration has deep roots in national forests and communities in Oregon and Washington. This is evident in the diversity, number, and work of forest collaboratives as well as the prevalence of collaborative programs working across jurisdictional boundaries. Collaboration can provide Forest Service staff opportunities to address local community priorities, build community capacity, leverage resources, and increase accomplishments and benefits across the board. All 16 national forests and the Columbia River Gorge National Scenic Area have forest collaborative groups associated with them. Land management policies in the last two decades have also had an important impact on national forests and communities in Oregon and Washington. In particular, all 16 national forests have used Good Neighbor Authority, seven forests contain current or former Joint Chiefs’ Landscape Restoration projects, and five forests have Collaborative Forest Landscape Restoration projects. These projects alone have engaged hundreds of different partnering organizations. | en_US |
