HC Deb 19 October 1992 vol 212 c89W
Mrs. Dunwoody

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs what proposals he has to increase awareness of how individuals and communities can assist in the preservation of rain forests.

Mr. Douglas Hogg

The individuals and communities best able to help preserve the rain forests are those living in and around the forests themselves. It is an important aim of many ODA-funded projects to encourage and enable these communities, along with their Governments, to participate in and benefit from the conservation and sustainable management of their forests.
