Fragmentation of information procurement from large area forest inventory and the link to the policy-making process within the international forest regime complex

该项目旨在通过在森林调查研究和政策科学之间采用跨学科的方法，分析科学信息对国际森林制度综合体(林权中心)碎片化的贡献。它的目标是1。分析不同国家和国际机构及其非国家盟友使用红十字与红新月联会内部清单信息的情况及其对分散的影响。2.与潜在可用的信息相比，评估政策进程中使用的清单信息的范围和质量。3.对照最先进的科学方法及其在支离破碎的情况下的作用，分析已实施的盘存做法4.通过检验盟国转让知识假说，确定科学知识进入红十字与红新月联会的途径。该项目将审查森林清查的技术科学可能性，并制定一种方法，以评估国家和国际机构在红十字与红新月联会内使用的清查信息的数量和质量。随后，将对照库存研究的最新水平对所用信息的质量进行评估。基于这样一种假设，即信息只可能与强大的行为者联合进入政策进程，而强大的行为者又选择了信息，该项目将分析政治行为者在利益驱动下对信息的选择。

This project aims at analysing the contribution of scientific information to the fragmentation of the international forest regime complex (IFRC) by applying an interdisciplinary approach at the interface between forest inventory research and policy science. Its objectives are1. Analyzing the use of inventory information within the IFRC by different national and international bureaucracies and their non-state allies and its effect on fragmentation. 2. Assessing the extent and quality of the inventory information used in policy processes as compared to the potentially available information. 3. Analyzing implemented inventory practices against the scientific state of the art approaches and their role in the context of fragmentation 4. Identifying avenues for scientific knowledge to enter into the IFRC by testing the knowledge-transfer-by-allies-hypothesis. The project will review the technical scientific possibilities of forest inventories and develop a method for assessing quantity and quality of inventory-based information used within the IFRC by national and international bureaucracies. Subsequently, the quality of information used will be assessed against the state of the art in inventory research. Based on the hypothesis that information may only enter the policy process in alliance with powerful actors, who in turn selected the information, the project will analyse the interest-driven selection of information by political actors.
