This 2014 occasional paper assesses whether FSC certification in three Congo basin countries (Cameroon, Congo and Gabon) has had positive impacts on working and living conditions of workers and their families, effectiveness and legitimacy of the institutions set up to regulate relationships between logging companies and neighbouring communities, and local populations' rights to and customary uses of forests.
