This paper assesses the existing meta-studies of forestry conservation. Most of meta-studies have focused on either the performance of protected areas or the community managed forests.

(2012) claim that community managed forests presented a lower mean deforestation rate than protected areas. We found several statistical problems and problems with definitions in all meta-studies, and we argue that the data available, not the least for community managed forest, does not allow for genuine global comparison. Using similar measuring techniques and same definitions when comparing the two management forms are necessities when trying to reach a general conclusion about which management form
