Comments on Global Core Set of forest-related indicators:
Indicator 5: Include Non-Timber Forest related jobs (Honey, resin, herbal medicine etc. related jobs)
Indicator 8: include Academia
Indicator 12: Relevant to forest health/cover is how much wood is harvested by the area of forest, not per forest worker
Indicator 14: Agree with b. as forests have more diverse products than wood and unsuitable harvesting of those can damage the forest (e.g. tree bark for medicine, mushrooms, honey, stakes, firewood)
Indicator 16: Agree on the percentage of total livelihood depending from forest-related services (food, shelter, habitat, medicine, building materials, energy, recreation etc.) - suggestion minimum 70% will indicate high dependence on forest-related services and products. This will enable this indicator to be measurable.
