Abstract
- The quest to solve the climate change problem mobilizes representatives from governments, academia, private companies and civil society organizations ( CSOs). Several CSOs around the world have demanded urgent measures by governments to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and to support adaptation measures in vulnerable communities that face extreme events, such as droughts, hurricanes and storms. This article identifies and analyses the strategies developed and implemented by a group of Brazilian CSOs between 2005 and 2010 regarding national and international policies on forests and climate change. It finds that CSOs define and change their strategies as a result of specific political contexts and interactions with other social actors. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
