Dear colleagues
I hope this message finds you well. On behalf of IUFRO
3.09.00<https://www.iufro.org/science/divisions/division-3/30000/30900/&… - working
group -- Sustainable Forest Operations for Forest landscape restoration, I would like to
invite you to the webinar Four Operational Challenges to Landscape Restoration in Latin
America. The webinar is scheduled for October 28, 12 pm, Washington DC (GMT -4),
This webinar is a joint effort between IUFRO Division 3, The International Society of
Tropical Foresters<https://tropicalforesters.org/> (ISTF) and Initiative
20x20<https://initiative20x20.org/> for Landscape Restoration in Latin America.
Forest and Landscape Restoration (FLR) represents not only a nature-based approach to
mitigating climate change but also an opportunity to reverse land degradation that
contributes to land-use carbon emissions and erodes a wide range of ecosystem services,
including biodiversity. For decades, forest structure and composition have been affected
by human activities in ways that cause increased risk from wildfires and other natural
disasters. But the tide is turning. Countries around the globe have made important
commitments to restore approximately 170 million hectares of degraded land by 2030. The
magnitude of national commitments, as well as the variety of interventions needed to
restore lands, require the implementation of sustainable forest operations that may differ
from those used in production forestry. This webinar will share innovative strategies to
overcome four operational challenges for establishing, tending, thinning, and harvesting
trees in a restoration context, which will be critical in achieving global FLR targets.
Modifications to current practices are needed to facilitate the cost-effective and
long-term sustainable implementation of FLR interventions.
The seminar will be recorded on zoom, and the material will be distributed to the
registered participants. Three of the presentations will be in Spanish from three
different countries (Perú, Chile, Guatemala) and one in English (United States).

Estimado Socio de la Iniciativa 20x20,
El World Resources Institute (WRI), La Unión Internacional de Organizaciones de
Investigación Forestal (IUFRO) y la Sociedad Internacional de Forestales del Trópico
(ISTF) en el marco de la Iniciativa 20x20 se complacen en invitarle al seminario virtual
Cuatro retos operacionales para escalar la implementación de la restauración de paisajes
en América Latina y el Caribe, que se llevará a cabo el 28 de octubre, de las 12:00 a las
13:45 hrs. (Washington, DC UTC-4).
El seminario forma parte de las actividades del Grupo de Trabajo de Buenas Prácticas de la
Iniciativa 20x20, la División 3.09.00 de IUFRO sobre Operaciones forestales sostenibles
para la restauración de paisajes y la ISTF.
Países alrededor del mundo ha manifestado su ambición de llevar a la restauración
aproximadamente 170 millones de hectáreas en paisajes degradados al 2030. La magnitud de
los compromisos nacionales requiere la implementación de operaciones sostenibles que
resultan ser diferentes a las operaciones tradicionales. Este seminario en línea
compartirá estrategias innovadoras para superar cuatro retos operacionales desde los
viveros y establecimiento hasta el manejo y el aprovechamiento de los productos del
proceso. Se necesitan operaciones forestales innovadoras y costo efectivas para la
sostenibilidad en el largo plazo de la restauración.
