La situation des forets du monde (SOFO) 2022: Des solutions forestieres pour une relance verte et des economies inclusives, resilientes et durables

The 2022 edition of The State of the World's Forests explores the potential of three forest pathways for achieving green recovery and tackling multidimensional planetary crises, including climate change and biodiversity loss. These pathways include halting deforestation and maintaining forests, restoring degraded lands and expanding agroforestry, and sustainably using forests and building green value chains. The balanced pursuit of these pathways can generate sustainable economic and social benefits, meet global demand for materials, and address environmental challenges.

Against the backdrop of the Glasgow Leaders Declaration on Forests and Land Use, which pledged 140 countries to eliminate forest loss by 2030 and support restoration and sustainable forestry, the 2022 edition of The State of the World's Forests (SOFO) delves into the potential of three forest pathways for achieving green recovery and tackling multidimensional planetary crises, including climate change and biodiversity loss. The three interrelated pathways are halting deforestation and maintaining forests, restoring degraded lands and expanding agroforestry, and sustainably using forests and building green value chains. The balanced, simultaneous pursuit of these pathways can generate sustainable economic and social benefits for countries and their rural communities, help sustainably meet increasing global demand for materials, and address environmental challenges.

The State of the World's Forests 2022 presents evidence on the feasibility and value of these pathways and outlines initial steps that could be taken to further pursue them. It is imperative that action is taken now to keep the global temperature increase below 1.5 °C, reduce the risk of future pandemics, ensure food security and nutrition for all, eliminate poverty, conserve the planet's biodiversity, and offer young people hope of a better world and a better future for all.
