The issue of climate change and environmental degradation due to global warming and otherrnfactors are the current issues of the world since they are causing serious problems to the world.rnIn order to address those global problems, in September 2000, the United Nation comes up withrnthe Millennium Declaration with eight goals to be achieved in 2015. In the meantime, allrnmember states of the world including Ethiopia agreed on the whole content of the declaration.rnAmong the MDGs, Goal Seven i.e. ensuring environmental sustainability is studied from thernperspectives of forestry management in Ethiopia.rnIn contextualizing the MDGs, sustainable forestry management is sectorial component part of thernwhole environment. Thus sustainable forest management includes the extent of forests,rnbiological diversity, vitality, productivity, protective and socio economic functions of forests,rnand legal, policy and institutional framework so that the need of future generation is notrncompromised for the present demand. In this respect, the Environmental Policy of Ethiopia andrnthe Forest Conservation and Utilization Policies are instrumental policy documents. On the otherrnhand, the former strategic document PASDEP and the current strategic framework GTP focus onrndetailed targets to address the need for sustainable forestry management with the strategies tornachieve MDGs. In addition Ethiopiaâ€™s Climate-Resilient Green Economy strategy is also veryrnimportant.rnIn relation to this sector, the FDRE Constitution, the FDRE Criminal Code, sectorial and crosssectorialrnlegislations like Forest Development, Conservation and Utilization Proclamationrn(Proclamation No. 542/2007), Environmental Impact Assessment Proclamation (ProclamationrnNo. 299/2002) and Environmental Pollution Control Proclamation (Proclamation No 300/2002)rnare mentioned. While EPA, MOA, IBC, EWCA and some NGOs working on environment arernquite important. In relation to the actual undertakings the adaption plans of regions, rehabilitationrnpractices, PFM and the development of CDM and REDD+ initiatives in some regional statesrnhave their own role in enhancing sustainable forestry management though the sector is not freernfrom some serious challenges. Therefore it is very much necessary to have better enforcementrnupon promulgating regional laws with supporting regulations. Moreover, it is alsornrecommendable to support NGOs and to reorganize MOA considering forestry management as arnseparate directorate so that the intended goal is met.
