Summary

The general principles of forest management, while generally known, have shown difficulties in their application to forest ecosystems in arid zones such as the argan forest. Since the early 1990s, the practice of forest management has evolved to better support the multi-functionality of forest areas and the sustainability of their resources. It is a matter of reframing the interventions in the different management units through the adoption of “restorative” activities that aims to strengthen the resilience of these ecosystems. This paper proposes to explore the possibilities of developing a reference system adapted to the restoration requirements of argan ecosystems marked by their vulnerability to global changes. It comes at the right time after the call of Agadir for the restoration of forest ecosystems on the sidelines of the 5th Mediterranean Forest Week held in Morocco (March 2017).

Abstract

The general principles of forest management have been shown to be of application to forest ecosystems in such areas as the argan forest. Since the early 1990s, the practice of forest management has evolved to be more supportive of the multi-functionality of forest areas and the sustainability of their resources. It is a matter of reframing the interventions in the different management units through the adoption of “restorative” activities that enhance the resilience of these ecosystems. This paper proposes to explore the possibilities of developing a global system of knowledge and understanding of argan ecosystems. Mediterranean Forest Week in Agadir - Morocco (March 2017) for the restoration of forest ecosystems.
