<p>The Swedish government has set up 16 environmental goals for Sweden to achieve. One of</p><p>them is “Living forests”, which is the foundation for the “National strategy for the formal</p><p>protection of forests”. The “National strategy” puts the private forest owner at the centre of</p><p>attention in order to achieve the environmental goal “Living forests”. Adaptive Management</p><p>could help with the implementation of the “National strategy”. 9 qualitative interviews have</p><p>been done in order to examine how the communication between private forest owners and</p><p>responsible authorities works. The interviews give the private forest owners’ perspective, and</p><p>what they want the communication to be like, when it comes to conservation biology.</p><p>Communication, language, and how to deal with conservation biology have been the main</p><p>issues brought up during the interviews. The private forest owners also demand more</p><p>flexibility and a keener ear from responsible authorities. The private forest owners would like</p><p>a better knowledge of what is happening when it comes to conservation biology on their land.</p><p>The private forest owners and the responsible authorities do have similar goals for what they</p><p>want to achieve with the forest, but they disagree on how to achieve that goal.</p>
