Abstract
Year 2 report for "The Forest Service and Communities: The Relationships Between Land and People in the Pacific Northwest Region" [Ecosystem Workforce Program Working Paper #72]. This is a joint project between the U.S. Forest Service Pacific Northwest Region and the University of Oregon
Ecosystem Workforce Program. This project aims to help the Forest Service and its partners better understand and communicate the social and economic contexts in which the Forest Service operates and document Forest Service impacts in advancing sustainable natural resources-based economies. We designed this project as a collaborative learning process in which we would experiment with new ways to use, integrate, and represent data, especially Forest Service data, to understand potential applications of data already being collected and recorded as well as identify data gaps and strategize how to fill them. In this second year we focused on: 1) showing trends over time; 2) presenting more nuanced analyses of regional characteristics, agency data, and linkages to communities; 3) digging deeper into collaborative restoration efforts and understanding where and how partnerships are leveraged by non-agency partners; 4) providing more detail on forest products from the national forests.
