Sustainable forest management (SFM) plays a vital role in protecting essential ecosystem services, supporting rural livelihoods, and achieving international climate objectives. Well-managed forests can significantly contribute to climate action by increasing carbon sequestration and enhancing ecosystem resilience. However, afforestation and deforestation patterns are influenced by a complex interplay of economic, policy, and environmental drivers.
This session will explore how forests contribute to both climate mitigation and adaptation, and how to balance demand for forest resources with climate and biodiversity objectives. It will examine key policy instruments such as regulatory frameworks, economic instruments and voluntary initiatives that promote SFM. The discussion will also highlight distinctions between managing private and public forests, as well as the role of corporate strategies in fostering sustainable forest practices.
