No results found.Forests contribute to the food security and sustainable livelihoods of billions of people. Forest sector value chains also offer over 86 million green jobs and support the livelihoods of many more. Over 2.4 billion people use wood-based energy for cooking. Sustainably produced wood plays a key role to advance sustainability in other sectors and help transitioning to a circular bioeconomy, for instance in green buildings or green packaging, and thus contribute to sustainable development. However, if harvested unsustainably, it can lead to forest degradation and deforestation. To meet climate, biodiversity and sustainable development goals, transformative actions are critical in the area of sustainable production. Building on the Glasgow Leaders’ Declaration on Forests and Land Use (UNFCCC COP26), this International Day of Forests (IDF) event will highlight the relevance of wood for people and planet and showcase benefits of sustainable and inclusive forestry value chains. -

No results found.The world has the capacity to produce enough food to feed everyone adequately. Yet despite progress made over the past two decades, at least 795 million people in the world, or just over one in every nine human beings, still suffer from hunger on a daily basis. While it has decreased from 18.6 percent in 1990-92 to 10.9 percent in 2014-16, this persistently high number remains unacceptable.
