5 Corruption and Illegal Logging in the Forest Sector Corruption in the forest sector is globally pervasive Has many forms Criminal: illegal logging, smuggling, extortion Legal but corrupt: state capture, institutional erosion, rent seizing Some activities technically illegal but support subsistance Scale is vast but quantitative estimates remain elusive: Illegal logging (roundwood)on public lands estimated at >$10bn per annum Illegal roundwood trade estimated at >$1.2bn per annum 5
6 Costs of poor forest governance Livelihood losses to forest dependent communities Environmental losses local and global (climate change and biodiversity loss) Fiscal losses to the state from lost royalties Spread of crime and corruption to other sectors (corruption contagion) Undermining institutions (with growth implications) Undermining legitimate forest enterprises 6
