Unlike in conventional production forestry, where the focus is on the wood that trees produce, a social forestry approach focuses on people, on community involvement and on the trees that provide direct and indirect benefits locally. The approach therefore is used to create immediate economic and social benefits to local people or communities from their immediate locality. (FAO. 2007. Asia-Pacific Forestry Sector Outlook Study: Ecotourism and other Services Derived From Forests in the Asia-Pacific Region: Outlook to 2010 http://www.fao.org/docrep/w7714e/w7714e07.htm)
