Abstract
Community engagement (CE) processes are an essential component of modern
forest management practices. Required under law and in line with modern
business paradigms, CE processes need to produce positive social as well as
operational outcomes, a balance that is often complicated and idealistic. This
paper identifies pathways to successful CE within operational plantation forestry management. Using narratives to explore the multiple experiences of those involved in engagement processes, the paper highlights the perspectives of both practitioners and other stakeholders. Analysing the multiple goals and
interpretations of engagement encounters, approaches for improving CE practices
used in plantation management and other settings are identified.
