Building a Green, Healthy and Resilient Future with Forests

CIFOR-ICRAF scientists will join the global forestry community at the World Forestry Congress to discuss the state and future of world forestry, particularly in the context of the recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic, while striving to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals. The Congress will focus on defining the role of forests in the global developmental agenda (2030 Agenda) and other major agreements including the  Global Forest Goals, Paris Agreement and post-2020 global biodiversity framework, and identify key measures necessary for the forest sector to adjust to the new reality and help ‘build back better’.
