Spiritual forests and forest kindergartens
Submitted by Carola Chiusi on 2 September 2022
This case study from the SINCERE project had the goal to:
- Explore how managing forests for use as spiritual forests could benefit both the forest and the forest owner.
- Raise awareness of the importance of cultural ecosystem services (CES) and motivate forest owners and managers to supply these services and to manage forests appropriately.
- The innovative mechanism (IM) is market-based, and its idea, concept and implementation come from the forest owner.
