They provide guidance for developing policies and help assess progress on sustainable forest management. Similar criteria have been developed in other regional and international pro- cesses, all in line with the seven thematic elements of sustain- able forest management agreed by the United Nations.\nThe pan-European criteria describe the different ele- ments and goals as follows:\n1. Maintenance and appropriate enhancement of forest resources and their contribution to global carbon cycles;\n2. Maintenance of forest ecosystems’ health and vitality;\n3. Maintenance and encouragement of productive functions of forests (wood and non-wood);\n4. Maintenance, conservation and appropriate enhancement of biological diversity in forest ecosystems;\n5. Maintenance, conservation and appropriate en- hancement of protective functions in forest management (notably soil and water);\n6. Maintenance of other socio-economic functions and conditions.\n\nSOURCE: http://www.foresteurope.org/filestore/foresteurope/Publications/pdf/Factsheet_Sustainable_Forest_Management_print.pdf]
