Descripción
Global momentum for forest and landscape restoration (FLR) is accelerating to achieve the SDGs, Global Forest Goals, the Bonn Challenge, and aspirations of the UN Decade on Ecosystem Restoration. In the Asia Pacific region, FAO member countries have endorsed the Regional Strategy and Action Plan for FLR, which emphasizes the importance of collaboration and coordination for FLR, including promoting private sector participation and communitylevel actions to meet the demands for forest products and services.
The Asia-Pacific region is experiencing a growing demand for forest products and services due to transitions in the region’s forests, economies and societies. Recognizing this trend, the third Asia-Pacific Forest Sector Outlook Study highlights the urgent need for more sustainable and inclusive wood value chains. The Asia-Pacific Regional Conference in 2022 invited FAO to strengthen work on sustainable forestry, in particular the sustainable wood production and consumption. In this context, this regional dialogue is organized on the APFC30 DIALOGUE DAY with the support of the Australian National University to discuss the opportunities, constraints, and ways forward for integrating sustainable wood supply with FLR. A background paper on this theme has been prepared to facilitate a focussed discussion.
