- 7. National forest policy framework • 1994 Forestry Act – Equal goals for wood production and environmental consideration – Framework legislation – Sector responsibility – Forest agency, to find a balance between economy, ecology and social aspects
- 8. National forest policy framework • 2009 addition to Forestry Act – The role of forests to mitigate climate change – SFM create robust and vigorous forests with high rate of growth, favourable to carbon storage as well as substitute fossil fuels – Future development – climate, biodiversity, bioenergy

- 11. Model Forest
- 12. Model Forest A Model Forest is both a geographic area and a partnership-based approach to the sustainable management of forest-based landscapes and natural resources. Is about the people who sustain themselves from the forest.
- 14. Baltic Landscape Project The aim is to establish a network of Baltic landscapes sites developed in connection to the International Model Forest Network. Will work as case study areas for development of new approaches in sustainable management of landscapes.
- 15. The core area of Vilhelmina Model Forest (VMF) is Vilhelmina municipality, about 850,000 ha. A large representative part of the Northern Swedish forest land and mountains. The roughly 7,000 inhabitants depend on the landscape and local natural resources for their livelihood through forestry, reindeer herding, hydropower, hunting, fishing, wi nd energy, tourism, etc.
- 16. Demonstration trails: alternative forest management practices, use and restoration of streams, Sami cultural relics etc.

- 19. Sustainable, well managed forests can play an important role in a switch-over to green economy with low impact on climate and environment. Integrated approaches at the landscape level can be useful tools to deal with potential land-use conflicts.
