Forest governance is a matter of relevance among the most important international organizations like the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) and the World Bank. Such organizations, in a convergent way, advocate the importance of forests in physical, economic and cultural balance as well as the need for their conservation and wise use. These organizations develop and test indicators of forest governance discussing forests governance and development. This article aims to analyze the perception of social actors in the forest sector in Paraná on forest governance, taking as reference a "model" analysis adopted by the OECD (2005). As a methodological tool, we adapted the questionnaire model developed by the OECD, then applied it to the social actors involved in forest management in Paraná, who were asked about forest governance. The study had as theoretical bases the framework developed by FAO (2011) which determines three pillars of good forest governance: legal policy regulations; planning and decision-making processes and implementation of forest policies.
