  • Description: Old-growth forest is the subject of widespread conflict. Understanding associated values and attitudes in society is necessary for its sustainable management. We investigated old-growth values through a narrative study employing in-depth interviews with six leaders in Canada’s forest sector. Old-growth forest was valued for its natural ecological systems, biotic components, and experiential aspects. The study highlights the importance of value discourse within the forest sector.
