Old-growth forest (OGF) is fraught with contentious issues. Understanding associated values and attitudes in society is necessary for its sustainable management. A narrative study was undertaken employing in-depth interviews with six leaders in Canada's forest sector to investigate OGF values. The interviews explored these individuals' backgrounds, their work in the forest sector, and their values and attitudes toward OGF, forests and forest management.

520 $a Old-growth forest (OGF) is fraught with contentious issues. Understanding associated values and attitudes in society is necessary for its sustainable management. A narrative study was undertaken employing in-depth interviews with six leaders in Canada's forest sector to investigate OGF values. The interviews explored these individuals' backgrounds, their work in the forest sector, and their values and attitudes toward OGF, forests and forest management.
520 $a I observed that family, social context, and experiences in nature were important influential factors. OGF was valued for its natural ecological systems, biotic components, and experiential aspects. Evidence of a clear relationship between values and behaviour emerged, but other factors (e.g. social contexts and beliefs) added complexity to this relationship. Values should play a key role in forest management, but challenges and limitations continue to constrain their integration into the management system. The study highlights the importance of value discourse within the forest sector.
