On 14 December 2023, the Policy Learning Platform is hosting an online workshop on the topic of boosting forest ecosystems from 14:00 to 16:30 ;
Forests are the largest terrestrial ecosystem in the EU. They host most biodiversity on land and contribute substantially to carbon storage and sequestration. Whilst forest ecosystems have shown improvements in the last decades, a deterioration of the condition of European forests can also be observed.
Climate change impacts aggravate other destructive pressures such as pollution or pests and affect the extent and intensity of forest fires. In light of these pressures, the New EU Forest Strategy for 2030 sets a vision and concrete actions for increasing the quantity and quality of forests in the EU and for strengthening their protection, restoration and resilience.
During this workshop, we will present strategies and policies facilitating the restoration and protection of forest ecosystems. You will learn about:
