Legal, policy and institutional framework
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Laws, policies and institutions are the main tools used by societies to achieve their objectives, in this case, sustainable forest management. This section describes the laws, policies and institutions relevant to forests and forest management which are in place in the Caucasus and Central Asia. The starting point was the same for all eight countries, the system in place in the USSR in the 1980s, characterised by public ownership of all forest land, and strong central direction from Moscow, through directives, financialsupport, and a clear division of labour between the various parts of the USSR. In Caucasus and Central Asia, priority was given to the protection functions, as practically all forests were classified as protective (Group 1). Other parts of the USSR were charged with wood production. Some features of this approach may be detected today, despite the profound social and economic changes over the past quarter century.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
