3 seminars, with 60

participants from 12 countries

7 Rethinking Forest Regulations

Critique very positive: Excellent opportunity to learn from other countries, as well as Montana

No other session like this anywhere

Interaction with civil society is very important

Need to have a special approach for countries with centralized land ownership—has unique challenges (Africa, e.g.)

Consider regional sessions targeted to countries in need, in native language
