    The Global Forest Observations Initiative (GFOI) is an informal partnership designed to facilitate coordination among international partners and developing countries that seek to improve their capacity in National Forest Monitoring Systems and associated emissions measurement, reporting and verification (MRV) procedures. The GFOI Office is responsible for the overall coordination and administration of GFOI and, since late 2015, has been based at FAO headquarters in Rome. The aim of the current project was to provide secretariat services and day to day oversight of the broader GFOI partnership on behalf of its members, components and activities. The project would function as a focal point for the Initiative, facilitate its overall operations and ultimately help its partners to deliver coordinated support on forest monitoring and MRV in a targeted, efficient and effective manner.

    Enhancing Ghana’s forest monitoring system for climate action through AIM4Forests
    Leveraging the national forest monitoring system assessment tool to address forest priorities and climate strategies
    2025
    Also available in:
    Ghana’s commitment to sustainable forest management and climate action has been further strengthened through the assessment of needs and gaps. The application of the national forest monitoring system (NFMS) assessment tool has been instrumental in this process. Developed by the Forest Monitoring and Data Platforms team of the Food and Agriculture Organizationof the United Nations (FAO), this comprehensive tool enables the assessment of NFMS capacities and needs, helping Ghana prioritize actions that align with both national objectives and international climate commitments. Developed under the project “Building global capacity to increase transparency in the forest sector” (CBIT-Forest), funded by the Capacity-Building Initiative for Transparency (CBIT) Trust Fund of the Global Environment Facility (GEF) and the “Accelerating Innovative Monitoring for Forests” (AIM4Forests) programme, funded by the Department for Energy Security and Net Zero of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland.

    Forests, biodiversity and people

    Also available in:
    As the United Nations Decade on Biodiversity 2011–2020 comes to a close and countries prepare to adopt a post-2020 global biodiversity framework, this edition of The State of the World’s Forests (SOFO) examines the contributions of forests, and of the people who use and manage them, to the conservation and sustainable use of biodiversity. Forests cover just over 30 percent of the global land area, yet they provide habitat for the vast majority of the terrestrial plant and animal species known to science. Unfortunately, forests and the biodiversity they contain continue to be under threat from actions to convert the land to agriculture or unsustainable levels of exploitation, much of it illegal.The State of the World’s Forests 2020 assesses progress to date in meeting global targets and goals related to forest biodiversity and examines the effectiveness of policies, actions and approaches, in terms of both conservation and sustainable development outcomes. A series of case studies provide examples of innovative practices that combine conservation and sustainable use of forest biodiversity to create balanced solutions for both people and the planet.
