Forests ecosystems play a key role in the livelihoods of the world population, especially in developing countries, not only with respect to the environment, but also in terms of their contribution to broader social issues. In this context, FAO has been monitoring the world’s forests at five-to-ten year intervals since 1948. The Global Forest Resources Assessments (FRA) are now produced every five years, and describe the world’s forests and how they are changing. They are based on country reports compiled by officially nominated national correspondents (NCs) and their collaborators. The results of the last assessment preceding this project (FRA 2015) were published in September 2015. Since then, major global developments have taken place, increasingly highlighting the need for high-quality data to better understand forests’ role in climate change and their contribution to sustainable development. The European Union is a key partner of the FRA programmeand has been supporting the global assessments since FRA 2010. It provided financial support for the implementation of the FRA programme, and more specifically for the implementation of the FRA 2020 reporting cycle, through this project. The overall objective of the project was to contribute to sustainable development and livelihood sustenance through sustainable forest management.
