    MODFOREST: A Decision Model Prototype

    Proyecto BOLFOR

    The MODFOREST decision model aims to capture the interactions between social organizations
    that live in (around) forests within the context of sustainable forest management in Bolivia. The
    key components of the model are a submodel simulating how social organizations make
    decisions, a forest submodel including tree species submodels, and a context submodel that
    includes the law and market rules. MODFOREST uses scenarios to aid decision makers. This
    prototype was developed for the Bolivian context and was developed with Simile software. The
    social organizations are Indigenous Communities (Tierras Comunitarias de Origen, TCOs) and
    Municipal Communities (Agrupaciones Sociales del Lugar, ASLs).
