文摘内容 Urban forestry is an emerging science and art in the field of resource management in the Philippines.The concepts and principles are quite similar with traditional forestry being both resource management strategies. As a science and art, urban forestry needs to be assessed as to its present status. Hence, in this paper, I presented a brief historical background about urban forestry in the Philippines including the previous and present efforts, policies and programs related to urban forestry and the extent of their implementation.I also included the result of my assessment about the initiatives and capabilities of the local agencies specifically the local government units (LGUs) in Metro Manila on urban forestry. I also included the status of urban forestry research including the research gaps that need to be addressed. Some recommendations that are logical toward sustainability of urban green spaces are likewise enumerated。
