by Rik De Vreese

Dear all, The Sino-European H2020 CLEARING HOUSE project<http://www.clearinghouseproject.eu/> which uses urban trees and forests as a means to improve living in cities in both Europe and China, opened a new stream of research & communication on urban forest and green-spaces during the Covid-19 pandemic. This communication stream consists of a blog series<http://clearinghouseproject.eu/category/blog/>, a survey<https://vub.fra1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_5bSsVfI1g1VgI7j> and short expert interviews. IUFRO members are welcome to contribute their story during Covid-19 through blogs, photographs or short stories. An introductory blog post for inspiration is available here<http://clearinghouseproject.eu/2020/04/30/trees-urban-forests-and-green-spa…>. Furthermore, we invite you to complete our survey on green space & urban forests during Covid-19 here. We are also looking for experts on green space management and urban forests for short expert interviews to be published on our website. If you know someone who is interested, please get in touch with Dennis (dennis.roitsch(a)efi.int). The CLEARING HOUSE project is coordinated by the European Forest Institute (EFI) and funded through the European Union’s Horizon 2020 Research and Innovation Program under Grant Agreement 821242. Some Chinese partners participate through their own funding. ______________________________________ Dr Rik De Vreese Contracted Senior Expert for Urban Forestry - CLEARING HOUSE Project Coordinator Resilience Programme European Forest Institute (EFI Bonn) Platz der Vereinten Nationen 7 53113 Bonn, Germany +32 485 36 00 78 http://www.efi.int http://www.clearinghouseproject.eu http://resilience-blog.com Read my latest blogpost: Policy recommendations for employing urban forests as enabling learning environments<https://resilience-blog.com/2019/03/26/policy-recommendations-for-employing…>

eye-opening NWFPs / NTFPs value in Europe

by Lukas Giessen

Dear IUFRO colleagues, Please find attached and under the below link an eye-opening new article on “Non-wood forest products in Europe – A quantitative overview”, estimating the annual NWFPs value in Europe – excluding hunting and game - to amount to 71% of the roundwood production! Mushrooms, berries and other non-wood forest products are widely collected across Europe. However, there is no data that provides overview of that activity on international level. We remedy this shortcoming with a survey conducted in 28 countries. Results show that 26% of European households collect them, that value of NWFPs collected each year amounts to 71% of the value of annual roundwood production, and that they produce value of 20.5 € per hectare of forest and other wooded land per year.
