The Policy Brief is launched at a side-event titled "Vienna Call for Action: The power of forest-based bioeconomy", which is a follow-up to the Global Summit <a href="http://url8074.news.iufro.org/ls/click?upn=u001.C6oMVBOd8j-2B22go-2BVoSNM8Y…><u>Advancing Sustainable Forest-based Bioeconomy Approaches</u></a>, held in Vienna, Austria, in February 2026.<br /><br />In recent years, the urgency of addressing interconnected global challenges such as climate change, biodiversity loss, resource insecurity, and growing socio-economic inequalities has become increasingly evident. These pressures are further intensified by often inefficient production and consumption patterns. Consequently, there is a need for transformation to balance economic development with environmental and biodiversity goals and social well-being.<br /><br />A forest-based bioeconomy offers a powerful pathway to address these challenges. It goes beyond wood products and bioenergy, encompassing the full range of forest types, their goods and ecosystem services. Sustainably managed forests can provide renewable materials, bioenergy, and other ecosystem services while supporting livelihoods, strengthening rural economies, and contributing to climate change mitigation and adaptation.<br /><br />These opportunities are already visible in practice across different regions. From mass timber buildings in cities like Singapore and Amsterdam to national programmes supporting timber construction in Europe, the use of wood supported by strong sustainability safeguards is increasing as a low-carbon alternative in the built environment. At the same time, value chains based on non-wood forest products, such as baobab in Africa or açaí in the Amazon, show how forests can generate income and innovation, while also requiring strong sustainability safeguards. These examples highlight that successful forest-based bioeconomy pathways depend on context-specific solutions, strong governance, and inclusive value chains.<br /><br />As IUFRO President <i>Professor</i> <i>Daniela Kleinschmit</i> notes, "When grounded in principles of sustainability, equity, and resilience, forest-based bioeconomy strategies can play a central role in advancing circular economies and delivering on multiple global commitments, including the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), the Paris Agreement, and the Global Biodiversity Framework among others." <br /><br />Global demand for wood and bio-based materials is expected to continue rising, driven by population growth, urbanization and the transition away from fossil-based resources. Overall material use has more than tripled over the past 50 years and could increase by a further 60% by 2060. Biomass currently supplies roughly a quarter of global material needs. Meeting this demand sustainably will require a combination of strategies, including improved productivity in both natural and planted forests, more efficient manufacturing and higher value use of wood resources, alongside strong governance frameworks to ensure sustainability.<br /><br /><i>Dr. Nelson Grima</i>, Coordinator of <a href="http://url8074.news.iufro.org/ls/click?upn=u001.C6oMVBOd8j-2B22go-2BVoSNM5U…><u>IUFRO's SciPol Programme</u></a> and co-editor of the publication explains, "This new Policy Brief is intended to inform policymakers, practitioners, and stakeholders engaged in the forest sector and the broader bioeconomy transformation. It synthesizes scientific evidence and practical experience to identify actionable policy options that accelerate a sustainable, inclusive, just, and circular forest-based bioeconomy." <br /><br /><strong>Download: </strong><a href="http://url8074.news.iufro.org/ls/click?upn=u001.C6oMVBOd8j-2B22go-2BVoSNM5U…><strong><u>Expanded Policy Brief</u></strong></a><br /><br /><i>Editors</i>: Ivana Živojinović, Nelson Grima, Maja Radosavljević <br /><br /><i>Lead Authors</i>: (in alphabetical order) Eric Hansen; Tim Payn; Lucia Pittaluga; Ricardo Vargas Carpintero; Ivana Živojinović <br /><br /><i>Contributing Authors</i> (in alphabetical order) Maria Luiza Almeida Luz; Siebe Briers; Lyndall Bull; Jimmy Chamberlain; Damiano Cilio; Janaína D.A.S.

This comprehensive update marks a significant step forward in supporting forest science and fostering global collaboration across the IUFRO network.<br /><br />This collaboration happens mainly in IUFRO's thematic structure. While the nine Divisions - permanent thematic units with their Research Groups and Working Parties - and one Task Force from the previous term continued to focus on their core topics, twelve new Task Forces addressing emerging cross-cutting issues started their work in pursuit of their goals through to the next IUFRO World Congress in 2029 in Nairobi, Kenya. Many of the network activities around the world are highlighted in this Annual Report.<br /><br />The first year after an IUFRO World Congress is also the first full year of a new IUFRO Board, which traditionally meets in Vienna, Austria, where the IUFRO Headquarter is located. <br /><br />At the Vienna Board meeting in May the Guiding Principles of Diversity, Equity and Inclusion were approved. These are vital to the global science community and fundamental to IUFRO's overall mission of advancing forest science for the benefit of all. <br /><br />The Board also officially approved the formation of a new Mentorship Committee, a forward-looking initiative designed to promote professional growth. <br /><br />Furthermore, the Board approved the new Regional Science-Policy Information Networks (SPIN), an activity which follows the Directors' Forum and aims to enhance collaboration between heads of institutions and research organizations and policy actors in regions. The first two regional networks were established in Africa and Europe.<br /><br />In June the IUFRO Science-Policy Programme (SciPol) presented its global assessment on Forests for Social and Economic Resilience and the related policy brief. <br /><br />And in September, a key highlight of the IUFRO Special Programme for Development of Capacities (IUFRO-SPDC) was a three-day workshop back-to-back with the 5th World Teak Conference in India, where early-career scientists learned about how science can best contribute to the restoration of degraded forest landscapes.</p> </div> </td> </tr>

We continue the Season with the <a href="http://url8074.news.iufro.org/ls/click?upn=u001.C6oMVBOd8j-2B22go-2BVoSNM8X…><u>Task Force on Gender Equity, Diversity and Inclusion in Forest-Related Sectors</u></a> - ForGEDI.<br /><br />Host <i>Gerda Wolfrum</i> from IUFRO Headquarters and co-host <i>Bashir Isiya, </i>Nigeria, from the International Forestry Students' Association (IFSA), spoke with Task Force co-leads <i>Todora Rogelja</i> from the University of Padova, Italy, and <i>Rattiya Lippe</i> from the Thuenen Institute of Forestry, Germany. <br /><br />The conversation highlighted <strong>entrenched power and governance structures</strong> that determine who is excluded from participation and denied rights, including access to forest resources. Globally, there are many examples of women, Indigenous Peoples, local communities, youth, and other groups that have managed forests well yet remain underrepresented in decision-making. <br /><br /><i>"Without including the perspectives of those who directly depend on the forest and who nurture the forest the most, policy decisions are incomplete and often ineffective and reinforce already existing inequalities,"</i><strong> </strong>said <i><strong>Todora Rogelja</strong></i>.<br /><br />There are also many success stories about how GEDI can be integrated into forest-related decision making. <i><strong>Rattiya Lippe</strong></i> refers to a book titled <a href="http://url8074.news.iufro.org/ls/click?upn=u001.C6oMVBOd8j-2B22go-2BVoSNMxU…><u>Women as stewards of forests</u></a> (Tropenbos International, Tropical Forest Issues, edited by Todora Rogelja and Luca Kroese). She highlights the story of an Indonesian woman called <i>Westhi Wigaringtyas</i> or <i>Wiga</i> who helped to significantly increase women's participation in decision making and forest management. <br /><br />In the end, as <i><strong>Rattiya</strong></i> put it, "<i>advancing gender equity, diversity and inclusion is not just about inviting more people to the table or representing diversity symbolically. What is required is transforming the culture and structure of the forest sector to make participation generally meaningful</i>."<br /><br />In this episode you will also learn about the successful <strong>ForGEDI Massive Open Online Course</strong> (<a href="http://url8074.news.iufro.org/ls/click?upn=u001.C6oMVBOd8j-2B22go-2BVoSNMy8…><u>ForGEDI MOOC</u></a>), about research publications and major upcoming meetings involving the Task Force, and about the plans for a <strong>ForGEDI Photo Exhibition and Contest</strong> at the 2029 IUFRO World Congress in Nairobi, Kenya.<br /><br /><strong>What is a main takeaway?</strong> If forests are to sustain life on earth in this era of multiple crises, the systems that are governing forests need to reflect the diversity of those who depend on forests, and who understand and steward them. After all, "<i>GEDI is not a moral add-on", <strong>Todora</strong> </i>stated.<i> "It's not a badge that we put onto our suit. It is the precondition for legitimacy, resilience, effective action and a regenerative society.</i>"<br /><br />Tune in to <a href="http://url8074.news.iufro.org/ls/click?upn=u001.C6oMVBOd8j-2B22go-2BVoSNM5U…><span style="color:hsl(240,100%,50%);"><strong><u>Branching Out: the forest podcast</u></strong></span></a>!

Save the date - Edmonton 2027

by Brigitte Burger

From: Ramsfield, Tod (he, him | il, lui) <tod.ramsfield(a)NRCan-RNCan.gc.ca> Sent: Mittwoch, 29. April 2026 17:09 Subject: Save the date - Edmonton 2027 Dear All, Join the global forest health research community in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada, from August 9-13, 2027, for the IUFRO conference hosted by Division 7 - Forest Health under the theme "Global Partnerships and Sustainability." We welcome the participation of units from other IUFRO Divisions to encourage cross-disciplinary collaboration under the conference theme. This international conference will bring together researchers from around the world who are dedicated to advancing the understanding and stewardship of healthy forest ecosystems. Participants will have the opportunity to showcase their research, exchange ideas, and build meaningful collaborations across all IUFRO divisions. We especially emphasize the importance of global and community partnerships in advancing sustainable forest management, and invite all perspectives, including Indigenous knowledge systems and research approaches. With a strong focus on forest health, the conference will feature sessions on forest insects and pathogens, invasive species, pest management, and forest damage assessment. Researchers working in complementary fields, including silviculture, forest genetics, and biodiversity, are warmly invited to contribute to this dynamic and interdisciplinary scientific program. In line with the conference theme, contributions that explore sustainability through cross-disciplinary collaboration are welcome. We hope that you are able to join us in Edmonton in 2027. Tod Ramsfield, Maartje Klapwijk, Nadir Erbilgin, Charles Nock, and Jennifer Klutsch Tod Ramsfield, PhD Co-Coordinator, IUFRO Division 7 - Forest Health Research Scientist Forest Pathology, Canadian Forest Service Natural Resources Canada / Government of Canada Tod.Ramsfield(a)NRCan-RNCan.gc.ca<mailto:Tod.Ramsfield@NRCan-RNCan.gc.ca> / Tel: 825-510-1303 Chercheur, Pathologie forestière, Service canadien des forêts Ressources naturelles Canada / Gouvernement du Canada Tod.Ramsfield(a)NRCan-RNCan.gc.ca<mailto:Tod.Ramsfield@NRCan-RNCan.gc.ca> / Tel : 825-510-1303

We continue the Season with the topic of <i>innovation</i> and the <i>Task Force on Scaling-Up Science-based Forest Sector Innovation.</i><br /><br />Host <i>Gerda Wolfrum</i> from IUFRO HQ and co-host <i>Leila Rossa Mouawad </i>from the American University of Beirut, Lebanon, and Deputy Coordinator of IUFRO's Communication Working Party, spoke with Task Force co-leads <i>Lyndall Bull</i>, an Australian forester with expertise in innovation and the bioeconomy trained at the University of Melbourne, and <i>Rajat Panwar</i>, a professor of responsible and sustainable business at Oregon State University, USA. They emphasized the importance of supporting the scaling up of science‑based innovation in the forest sector by raising awareness, strengthening education and communication, and promoting collaboration and partnerships among multiple stakeholders.<br /><br /><strong>Why is innovation important?</strong> The world's forests face growing pressure mainly from climate‑related stresses while demand for wood and non‑wood products continues to rise. To keep forests healthy, resilient, and able to provide essential goods and services, innovation is vital. It is important to understand that innovation comes in a variety of forms, from technological and digital advances to improved forest and land management practices, as well as social, policy, institutional and financial innovations. However, whatever form it takes, innovation in the forest sector ultimately aims to enhance the economic, environmental, and social performance of forest-based systems.<br /><br /><strong>What is the role of science?</strong> Lyndall highlighted the critical role of science in scaling up innovation, stressing that <i>"Science provides for us the foundational knowledge that we need to understand all the different aspects of the forests and the forest sector. This evidence base is essential for ensuring that the innovations that we develop, be they technological, be they forest management or governance, are both effective but also inclusive and that they're also sustainable. We can't do this without science."</i><br /><br /><strong>Are there any regional differences?</strong> Rajat elaborated on regional differences in innovation and stressed that, "<i>Meaningful innovation in the forest sector must flow in both directions. That is not only from the Global North to the Global South, but between the Global North and the Global South. While advanced technologies are often developed in the Global North, it is important to keep in mind that some of the most powerful innovations in governance, in community stewardship, and livelihood integration are emerging from the Global South." </i><br /><br /><strong>What is a main takeaway?</strong> For Leila as a communication expert, the key takeaway is that <i>"innovation is only possible when communication connects science with policy, people, and practice, which means that communication is truly a key enabler of innovation in the forest sector."</i><br /><br />Tune in to <a href="http://url8074.news.iufro.org/ls/click?upn=u001.C6oMVBOd8j-2B22go-2BVoSNM5U…><span style="color:hsl(240,100%,50%);"><strong><u>Branching Out: the forest podcast</u></strong></span></a>!

WG: Call for papers Special Issue SSF: Governance analyses of forest-based value and supply chains

by Lukas Giessen

Dear colleagues, Our special issue on Governance analyses of forest-based value and supply chains<https://link.springer.com/collections/cchejbighh>, co-edited with Dr. Verina Ingram, is calling for paper submissions until December 2026! Please see below for details, and feel free to share this call in your network. From: Ingram, Verina <verina.ingram(a)wur.nl<mailto:verina.ingram@wur.nl>> Sent: Mittwoch, 4. März 2026 11:44 Cc: Soekardjo Hintz, Kendisha Illona <kendisha.hintz(a)tu-dresden.de<mailto:kendisha.hintz@tu-dresden.de>> Subject: Call for papers Special Issue SSF: Governance analyses of forest-based value and supply chains Dear colleagues Our call for papers for the Special Issue on Governance analyses of forest-based value and supply chains<https://link.springer.com/collections/cchejbighh> in the Small Scale Forestry<https://link.springer.com/journal/11842> journal is now open until December 2026! This special issue seeks to advance analytical frameworks, methods, and empirical cases dealing with complex governance dynamics of forest-based supply and values chains, from forest-based harvesters to processors and consumers. Empirical value chain governance studies, including those in the forestry sector, have heavily relied on the classification of a) a buyer- or producer-driven one, or b) strong or weak bargaining power. These classifications rather serve chain actors involved in global trade and do not reveal the nuanced power dynamics or other definitions of value beyond economic ones. Forest product chains stemming from small-scale production systems may imply i) domestically-traded goods, ii) governance dynamics and nuances that may not have been captured by such a categorical distinction, and iii) inherent multiple social, cultural, and ecological values. We welcome papers on: * Power relations, participation, and equity in forest-based value chains, including the roles of small-scale forest farmers, Indigenous and local actors, and small and medium-sized enterprises * Governance arrangements, policy instruments, and regulatory frameworks that steer forest-based value and supply chains toward biodiversity protection, or rural development * Innovations in forest-based chain governance, such as traceability mechanisms, unilateral regulations traceability mechanisms, unilateral regulations, new partnerships, cooperative structures, certification, payment schemes for ecosystem services, and digitalization that reconfigure value creation and power relations along forest-based chains. We encourage interdisciplinary work that: * Combines qualitative and quantitative methods to analyze governance processes, performance, and outcomes in forest-based chains (e.g., case studies, comparative analyses, network analysis, participatory approaches) * Bridges socio-political, economic and institutional perspectives, including value chain and value network approaches, innovation studies, and political ecology. Given the journal's profile, contributions should explicitly address small-scale forestry by: * Addressing how governance arrangements affect small-scale producers and their livelihoods, and other actors in local, regional, or global forest-based value and supply chains * Exploring opportunities and constraints for small-scale forestry to capture more value, diversify products, and enhance resilience under changing markets, policies, and societal contexts.
