Coillte has always welcomed the opportunity to engage with the local community and other stakeholders in the development of forest resources. In recent years partnerships between Coillte and local communities have evolved to create new amenity areas in forests close to population centres. These projects are very successful and allow groups and communities to have a meaningful and direct input into aspects of forest management of their local area. We have numerous examples of these partnership approaches to forest resource management. Examples are presented here, and we will be adding details of more projects to the list over time:
