The fund's premises are to promote forestry-based public policies, through its lines of development. focused on sustainability. The prevailing model for implementing the annual actions planned by the fund is through project promotion. Given this, the study had the general objective; develop a monitoring model for forest-based projects based on widely accepted good governance principles; transparency, accountability, participation and coordination to assist FUNDEFLOR in managing forestry concession resources. As for the methodology, it is a case study of a qualitative, descriptive and documentary nature. The study concludes that it is important to have a real-time monitoring platform for projects promoted to converge good governance principles into good forestry governance practices at FUNDEFLOR.
