Creating the desired future outcomes
Our current focus
How can we achieve the desired
future goals and outcomes?
- Some of our current
policies and actions
could get us there
- Need to account for
long-term trends and
surprises
- New policies could be
adopted to get us to the
desired future
Present
Desired future goals
based
Completed
on the MEAS
Desired future outcomes
Completed
expressed as indicators
(qualitative and
quantitative) relevant for
the area/country
Future
Creating the desired future outcomes
How can we achieve the desired
future outcomes? For example:
-
-
-
Current economic
diversification policy could
be used to explore new
types of products (from
different species)
Revising species and
planting guidelines to
include native tree species
Setting quotas for species
composition
Estimate how the revenues
are sensitive to changes in
wood prices and new
construction demands (what
if questions)
Present
Desired future outcomes
• Decrease the monoculture
forestry by 30%
• Maintain high and stable
timber supply (mil m3 of
wood)
• Achieve at least 80% of
current economic returns
from forest sector

Policy Analysis Questions
• Is the current portfolio of policies directed at
the MEA sufficient to achieve the desired
long-term outcome target?
• What are the leverage points (D, P, S, I)
and are effective policies being directed at
these leverage points?
• Is a mix of instruments being used
(economic, regulatory, expenditure,
institutional)?
