CIFOR–ICRAF addresses local challenges and opportunities while providing solutions to global problems for forests, landscapes, people and the planet.

We deliver actionable evidence and solutions to transform how land is used and how food is produced: conserving and restoring ecosystems, responding to the global climate, malnutrition, biodiversity and desertification crises. In short, improving people’s lives.

Research for a green, healthy and resilient future with forests and trees

Building a green, healthy and resilient future with forests and trees requires strong knowledge to anticipate future changes and shocks, and their impacts on ecosystems, economies and livelihoods. Such knowledge also provides a basis for the development of strong, systemic, and better-coordinated policies to prepare for and address these changes. The purpose of this session is to discuss the role of forest and tree research for development in building a green, healthy, and resilient future. Forests and trees, like never before, are called on to play an important role in achieving many different objectives. The session will focus on key insights from a decade of research within the now-concluded CGIAR research program on Forests, Trees and Agroforestry (FTA) (2011-2021), as well as key insights by the International Union of Forest Research Organizations (IUFRO) on current major forest research frontiers.
