The challenge of harmonizing the seemingly contradicting, opposed management of natural resources for environmental stability and security, and the development of the community in the uplands is increasingly pressing. Science-Based Management and Upland Community Development in the Philippines: The Case of Mount Makiling Forest Reserve provides useful and insightful information in understanding the dynamics of twinning upland community development and natural resource management. Cases, recommendations, and guides on how the Mount Makiling Forest Reserve's resources can be harnessed to redound to the inclusive growth of these communities without compromising the ecological integrity of the mountain are also discussed in this book. --Back cover of the book.
