The Third International Conference on
Forest Related Traditional Knowledge and Culture in Asia

豊かな森林に囲まれたアジア各地の伝統的知識や文化を見直す国際会議です。韓国(2008年)・中国（2009年）に続く今回のテーマは『里山と多様性』。人の手が加わることによって豊かになる自然があることを、生物と文化の二つの多様性の側面から議論します。

 Forests are home to millions of people, including many indigenous people, around the world. Billions of people rely to some extent on forests for their livelihoods, e.g. for fuel wood, medicinal plants, forest foods and income, and for their cultural and spiritual identity. Forests provide critical environmental services such as conservation of biodiversity, water and soils, and they help to regulate the climate.
  With its humid summer, Monsoon Asia has extensive forest cover. The long co-evolution of human peoples and forest environments has resulted in rich traditional knowledge of forests throughout the region. The significance of this knowledge to sustainable management of forests in the region is now widely recognized.
  This International Symposium is to share information on forest-related traditional knowledge and culture and exchange experiences in promoting traditional knowledge and culture for sustainable forest management in Monsoon Asia, and to strengthen regional networking on traditional knowledge and culture, forest and biodiversity, and sustainable development.
