Invitation to attend the 2021 virtual ISTF conference

by Brigitte Burger

From: International Society of Tropical Foresters <istf(a)yale.edu <mailto:istf@yale.edu> > Date: Mon, 18 Jan 2021 23:35:20 +0000 Subject: Invitation to attend the 2021 virtual ISTF conference We would like to invite you and your colleagues to participate in the 27thannual International Society of Tropical Foresters conference. The deadline for submissions to has been extended until FRIDAY, January 22. Submit your abstracts for breakout sessions, posters, flash talks, and applications for the ISTF Innovation Prize. This year’s theme will be “Timelines and Critical Junctures: Re-examining Crises as Opportunities for Change”. The Yale ISTF Chapter is dedicated to the advancement of tropical forest studies at the Yale School of the Environment, formerly known as the Yale School of Forestry & Environmental Studies. The ISTF conference has been hosted at Yale for 26 years and addresses a range of socio-ecological issues across the tropics. The 2021 conference will bring together an international community of academics, practitioners, activists, policy makers, artists, journalists and community leaders to re-examine crises as moments of learning and opportunities to set forth on new trajectories. Seizing these moments requires us to reflect on the interconnected nature of society, economy and the environment while motivating efforts to mitigate future events in light of our past successes and failures. While the conference will unfortunately not be held in-person as per tradition, we hope that the online format will allow wider access and participation from attendees around the world, especially for participants and speakers that have historically faced difficulties with travel to the United States. Its virtual format will also allow us to offer subtitles in Spanish via Zoom's software. Register and submit you abstracts at our 2021 conference website: <http://istfconference.events.yale.edu/> http://istfconference.events.yale.edu/ Follow Yale ISTF on Facebook @yalefesistf, Twitter @YaleISTF, and Instagram @YaleISTF for updates as more conference details unfold! See you there! Yale ISTF 2021 Team

New IUFRO-WWF Report on Forest Landscape Restoration

by Brigitte Burger

Enabling Factors to Scale Up Forest Landscape Restoration <https://www.iufro.org/typo3temp/assets/_processed_/8/d/csm_2020_11_20_WWF_I UFRO_FLR_Policy_Study-cover_39715b07a1.jpg> Beschreibung: https://www.iufro.org/typo3temp/assets/_processed_/8/d/csm_2020_11_20_WWF_IU FRO_FLR_Policy_Study-cover_39715b07a1.jpgThe time is now to make forest restoration (FLR) at scale a success. This study seeks to better understand enabling governance and economic factors that can inform FLR implementation, based on sound evidence gathered from diverse contexts. Enabling Factors to Scale Up Forest Landscape Restoration: The Roles of Governance and Economics. Full Report with Case Studies Published by WWF-Germany, November 2020 Author: Stephanie Mansourian, environmental consultant and Deputy Coordinator of the IUFRO Task Force on Transforming Forest Landscapes for Future Climates and Human Well-Being WWF and IUFRO have come together to push the forest restoration agenda forward using our combined scientific, policy and field implementation expertise. Both of our organizations have been exploring lessons learned in FLR (IUFRO FLR Snapshot and WWF FLR Field Experiences) to understand what works and what doesn't as a basis for informing future implementation. The purpose of this report is to identify the enabling factors at the national or subnational scale (including specifically governance and economic factors) that have motivated the initiation of forest restoration, that have enabled its implementation at scale, and that are key to sustaining it. It reviews case studies of 10 locations that have scaled up forest restoration (Bhutan, Colombia, Costa Rica, Ethiopia, Georgia, Kenya, Madagascar, Viet Nam, the Great Green Wall for the Sahara and Sahel, and Brazil's Espírito Santo State) in order to identify possible enabling factors related to governance and economics and thereby to guide future FLR interventions.
