<#m_-1265407713834499929_>*
- *Forests and trees provide billions of people with food, medicine and
sustainable incomes.*
- *Climate change, biodiversity loss and unsustainable forest management
are making forests weaker and putting their vital services at risk.*
- *The global forest science community calls for the best use of
knowledge to strengthen forests.*
*Vienna, 24 March 2025 -* In 2012, the UN General Assembly proclaimed 21
March as the *International Day of Forests*
<http://url8074.news.iufro.org/ls/click?upn=u001.C6oMVBOd8j-2B22go-2BVoSNMxp…>.
In 2025, *forests and foods* is the theme for the day. The
Vienna-based *International
Union of Forest Research Organizations *(IUFRO
<http://url8074.news.iufro.org/ls/click?upn=u001.C6oMVBOd8j-2B22go-2BVoSNMxp…>),
one of the world's largest and oldest research collaborations, is taking
this as an opportunity to emphasize the role of forests and forest science
for food security.
"The importance of healthy and species-rich forests for the environment and
the economy cannot be overestimated," says IUFRO Senior Advisor *Dr
Christoph Wildburger* and highlights the fundamental climate-protecting
function of forests as CO2 and water regulators. "*Forests also ensure
diversified food production*: for example, forests are indispensable for
pollinating insects such as bees. They protect rivers and water catchment
areas thereby preserving the habitat of fish. Forests also provide green
fodder for domestic animals, firewood and protein-rich game meat. They
contribute to the livelihoods of more than five billion people worldwide,"
he says.
*Science and research provide the basis for evidence-based policy*
*IUFRO President Daniela Kleinschmit*, Professor of Forest and
Environmental Policy at Albert-Ludwig University of Freiburg, Germany,
calls on political and economic decision-makers worldwide: "*Findings from
science and research provide a sound basis for recommendations for the
survival of forest ecosystems—and thus for safeguarding human well-being.*
This is of particular importance for people whose livelihoods and food
sources are directly threatened by the consequences of climate change, loss
of biodiversity, and damage to ecosystems."
Anyone who obtains food primarily from forests has a great interest in
keeping them healthy. Ecologically resilient forests guarantee an intact
basic supply, enable cultural vitality, and foster economic progress.
"Forest protection measures to mitigate the effects of climate change and
to preserve biodiversity—especially in tropical regions of the world—are
based on one key success factor: they work best when they are implemented
in agreement with the local people who rely on forests for their immediate
livelihoods and food sources," Professor Kleinschmit explains. "*Forests
can promote the food sovereignty of the local population*. Their
agricultural and forestry expertise is a valuable resource and should be
integrated into political and administrative measures," she adds.
*Forests provide more than timber: food worth billions*
Forests not only provide raw materials for the wood-processing industry but
also food, fuel, and much more. This means income and jobs, especially for
the most vulnerable groups in society worldwide and for people who live
near forests. While farmers and private individuals in many European
countries, for example, primarily value timber from their forests as an
additional source of income, people in other regions of the world rely more
on food and firewood from the forest. The *economic benefits of these
products should not be underestimated*. In 2022, the global trade volume of
pine nuts and wild mushrooms amounted to around 1.8 billion US dollars!
Access to wild food from the forest also provides *more variety in the diet*
and thus *improves health*. Surveys in 24 tropical countries have shown
that the sale of wild foods accounts for four percent of private household
incomes.
*Science delves into the ways forests support food production, health, and
resilience*
For ten years, IUFRO has been examining the contribution of forests to
achieving *global sustainability goals*
<http://url8074.news.iufro.org/ls/click?upn=u001.C6oMVBOd8j-2B22go-2BVoSNMxp…>
on behalf of the United Nations and conducting comprehensive
interdisciplinary studies as part of its *Science-Policy Programme*
<http://url8074.news.iufro.org/ls/click?upn=u001.C6oMVBOd8j-2B22go-2BVoSNMxp…>.
Study coordinator Dr Wildburger explains: "In our *global study on forests
and food security*
<http://url8074.news.iufro.org/ls/click?upn=u001.C6oMVBOd8j-2B22go-2BVoSNMxp…>
back in 2015, we were able to show how forests and trees complement
agricultural production and thus contribute to livelihoods of the local
population, especially in the poorest regions of the world." Professor
Kleinschmit, co-author of the study, adds: "Science also shows that
agriculture systems that integrate forests and trees are more resilient to
extreme weather events such as heavy rain, drought, or storms."
IUFRO's *global study on forests and water*
<http://url8074.news.iufro.org/ls/click?upn=u001.C6oMVBOd8j-2B22go-2BVoSNMxp…>
*,* published in 2018, emphasizes that forests and trees ensure a balanced
water supply and safeguard water quality. The 2020 assessment on the *role
of forests in poverty reduction*
<http://url8074.news.iufro.org/ls/click?upn=u001.C6oMVBOd8j-2B22go-2BVoSNMxp…>
shows that trees provide products and services that improve the lives of
many people living in poverty and mitigate risks in crisis situations. In
2023, IUFRO also analyzed the contribution of *forests and trees to human
health*
<http://url8074.news.iufro.org/ls/click?upn=u001.C6oMVBOd8j-2B22go-2BVoSNMxp…>
and stressed the importance of forests in providing medicines, food, and
other products to strengthen human health.
*New global IUFRO assessment on resilience announced for June 2025*
The aspects addressed in the former publications will be brought together
in a new large-scale study: in June 2025, IUFRO will present a global
assessment on the topic of *Forests for Social and Economic Resilience*
<http://url8074.news.iufro.org/ls/click?upn=u001.C6oMVBOd8j-2B22go-2BVoSNMxp…>.
It assesses the multidimensional relationships between forests and social
and economic resilience from different perspectives. To facilitate
evidence-based action by political decision-makers, the team of authors is
producing an accompanying *policy brief* that summarizes the study results
in a compact format.

*IUFRO Division 3: the 'how' of forestry <#m_8109074004971157973_>*
Forestry is not just about felling trees, but about how we protect,
sustainably manage and restore forests. In the most recent episode of
*Branching
Out: the Forest Podcast*, hosts *Jose Bolaños* (IUFRO HQ) and *Dante
Bertocci *(International Forestry Students' Association, IFSA) talk to one
of the Co-Coordinators of the International Union of Forest Research
Organizations' (IUFRO) Division 3 - Forest Operations, Engineering, and
Management.
*René Zamora-Cristales *(Oregon State University and World Resources
Institute), Co-Coordinator of Division 3, explains that this Division
focuses on how forestry activities are carried out - from seed collection
and forest restoration to logging and resource management. He emphasizes
that forest operations go far beyond timber harvesting, playing a key role
in biodiversity conservation and forest landscape restoration.
He also highlights that meeting global restoration targets, such as 350
million ha of forest landscapes by 2030 goal set by the UN Decade on
Ecosystem Restoration, requires careful planning. Without proper operations
and engineering, even well-intentioned restoration efforts can fall short.
Artificial intelligence-powered satellite imagery and drone technology are
helping scientists map forests, analyse tree health, and optimize resource
use. However, René emphasizes that AI remains a decision-support tool -
human expertise and local knowledge remain vital for responsible forest
management.
As we navigate global challenges, Division 3's work reminds us that the
'how' of forestry is just as important as the 'why'.

An Iconic World Congress Paves the Way to the Future
The heritage of the World Congress was discussed during a Summary Day on
December 5. The focus was clear: advancing science-based policymaking and
collaboration to address the critical challenges of climate change,
biodiversity loss, and sustainable development.
The Summary Day, hosted by the Royal Swedish Academy of Agriculture and
Forestry, brought together about sixty Nordic and Baltic stakeholders to
reflect on the Congress’s outcomes, the Nordic hosting and the Stockholm
Congress Statement. With 4,200 participants from 110 countries, the
Congress was the largest and most inclusive in IUFRO’s history. Under the
theme *Forests and Society Towards 2050*, it set a new standard for
scientific dialogue, innovation, and inclusivity. The Nordic and Baltic
contributions, prominently featured in the Stockholm Congress Statement,
highlighted the region’s forest research and management leadership.
“The Congress was iconic,” said Daniela Kleinschmit, IUFRO’s newly elected
first female president. “Forests not only play a pivotal role for the
future; forests play the pivotal role in mitigating climate change and
ensuring a sustainable future. That is why we must make science more
visible and accessible to all stakeholders.”
A similar need for bold action was put forward by Herman Sundqvist,
Director General at the Swedish Forest Agency. ”The strategy and actions
outlined in the Stockholm Congress Statement call for our decision-makers
to press the development forward. We must support and engage our
politicians to listen to science and take bold action now!”
*Strengthening Science - Policy Interaction *
One of the key outcomes of the Congress and the Summary Day was the
introduction of regional research networks in Europe and Africa. These
networks aim to bridge the gap between science and policy by integrating
regional knowledge with global assessments, providing actionable insights
for decision-makers.
“Our task as a scientific community is to coordinate research findings and
make them accessible to all stakeholders. I believe this is a good way to
achieve alignment in forest issues based on science,” Kleinschmit
explained.
A core group will oversee the prioritization and implementation of
activities in each region, strengthening the science-policy interface at
all levels. Adalsteinn Sigurgeirsson, Senior expert, Land and Forest
Iceland, hailed the initiative:
“Actions and decisions must be grounded in scientific findings.
Strengthening regional collaboration will influence the European and,
ultimately, global scientific agenda”.
He was supported by Hardi Tullus, a Professor from the Estonian University
of Life Sciences, pointing out the “opportunity during the Congress to
strengthen, for the politicians and stakeholders, the science-policy
interaction to understand the links between regional differences, solutions
and the global development”.
*Dialogue and Trust - Keys to Progress *
The need for enhanced dialogue and collaboration emerged as a recurring
theme throughout the discussions. Ritva Toivonen, Dean at the University of
Helsinki, emphasized the importance of breaking down silos and fostering
trust in science.
Mathias Mellgren Helge, Public Relations Manager for the Swedish Outdoor
Association was impressed by the extensive scope of the Congress, and
believed “the dialogues at the Congress between scientists, stakeholders
and politicians helps fostering trust and to get forest higher up on the
political agenda. It is clear that forest products and services have the
solutions for many of the challenges the world faces today and in the
future”.
“We need research to build sustainable and climate-resilient societies, but
this requires a dialogue beyond research, inviting other stakeholders to
the table. The polarized debate in forestry must end. If we don’t
collaborate better, we cannot find sustainable solutions that meet
economic, societal, and ecological demands,” Toivonen said.
Anna Ylä-Antilla, Director of FSC Finland, echoed this sentiment,
highlighting the importance of future consensus among stakeholders to
balance forests’ economic, social, and ecological values. “Without
consensus, it will be hard to achieve sustainability recognised by all
parties,” she remarked.
*Innovation as a Catalyst for Change *
The Summary Day also underscored the transformative potential of innovation
in forestry. Olle Gelin, CEO of Airforestry, advocated for bold thinking in
forest management practices:
“Innovations should not only improve existing methods but also break new
ground. Current mind-sets often slow down necessary initiatives, and this
must change,” Gelin said, pointing to the need for pioneering solutions to
address mismanaged forests globally.
The Innovation Stage was a part of the Congress exhibition area, presenting
innovative products, services and systems. It was put forward as a good
example of how to bring science to society.
Joel Lindblom, Chair of the Student Union posted that “the Congress concept
provided valuable networking opportunities, particularly through the
Innovation stage, where students were involved in the dialogues showing
NextGens perspectives, which inspired us to embrace forestry’s future
potential”.
Anders Portin, from SLC – Union of Swedish-speaking Agricultural Producers
in Finland, pointed out the importance of bringing stakeholders from
outside research to the Congress:
“The Innovation Stage also provided an opportunity for start-ups to present
innovations for global stakeholders and scientists, while the product is
not yet ready for a market launch”, he said.
*Interdisciplinary Collaboration *
Sigurgeirsson pointed out that new research strengthens the importance of
forests.
“A recent study shows we’ve undervalued forests’ carbon sequestration by
30%. This emphasizes forests’ dual role-carbon storage and sustainable
products-critical for climate change mitigation”.
Hans Fredrik Hoen, Professor at the Norwegian University of Life Sciences,
concluded that forestry faces a communication challenge:
“Sustainable management has been part of forestry for centuries, but we
struggle to share this narrative effectively. While environmental crises
dominate headlines, the forestry sector must communicate its role in
renewable resource management to a broader public”.
Karin Fällman, Head of Sustainability at the Swedish Foundation
Skogssällskapet, highlighted the value of the Congress:
“It underscored the importance of collaboration connecting researchers and
practitioners globally. For example, one of our congress excursions brought
together a fourth of our staff with international experts, which had
immense value. Regional and global collaboration, whether at the EU, UN, or
local level, is essential to tackle challenges like climate change and
biodiversity loss”.
“Collaboration is also central to FSC’s work”, said Anna Ylä-Anttila,
Director, FSC Finland. “We unite environmental, social, and economic
stakeholders equally. However, the role of NGOs deserves more
attention-especially their contributions to forestry discussions. One
concern I see is the shift toward short-term, results-oriented research.
While necessary, this shouldn’t replace forward-looking, interdisciplinary
dialogue. Forums like IUFRO are ideal for bridging diverse
perspectives-science, civil society, and business”.
*Completed Assignment *
As the host of the 26th IUFRO World Congress, the region’s contributions
set the foundation for IUFRO’s global research strategy for the next five
years. The Congress strengthened regional cooperation and elevated the
global forestry agenda, integrating the perspectives of 20,000 researchers
and 700 member organizations worldwide.
The assignment is now completed for the Congress Organizing Committee.
Through the Summary Day at the Academy, the Committee has officially
submitted the heritage of the hosting to IUFRO and the Nordic and Baltic
partners.
“The Nordic and Baltic collaboration has been invaluable for the strategic
management. The Congress Organizing Committee is proud of its achievements
on budget and humbled by the positive response to the Congress”, said
Fredrik Ingemarson, Chair of the Congress Organizing Committee.
“The regional networking and global exchange of knowledge, in dialogue with
Youth bringing in new perspectives, were of great importance for our
members. This Congress also showed that we collaborated and had strong
political support from all the Nordic and Baltic countries and the Nordic
Council of Ministers”, says Birgitta Naumburg, Academy Forester from KSLA.
*Nordic Heritage to Build On*
“The Congress was an eye-opener, showcasing a broad range of topics and
valuable Nordic-Baltic cooperation”, said Sigurgeirsson. “This work
benefits both regional and global discussions. IUFRO provides the
foundation for evidence-based forestry, ensuring scientific findings
influence international policy, such as FAO initiatives and UN processes.
Regional cooperation-starting in the Nordics-often extends to European and
global levels. This highlights the Congress’ broader significance”.
“Denmark is committed to increasing forest cover by 250,000 hectares by
2050 - a 40% increase", said Pernille Karlog, Agency for Green Transition,
Denmark. “This ambitious goal requires strong Nordic-Baltic cooperation to
share expertise and innovation. Platforms like Nordic Forest Research, SNS,
are invaluable for facilitating this exchange”.
She was supported by Florence Pendrill, pointing out that “Collaborative
initiatives like NordForsk and bilateral programs between Sweden and
Finland demonstrate the power of regional partnerships for research and
capacity-building”.
Jonas Rönnberg, Head of SNS concluded that “funding remains a major
challenge for global collaboration. Nordic platforms like Nordic Forest
Research, SNS, provide critical support for collaborations for the Nordic
and Baltic countries, but expanding beyond the region-especially to the
Global South-requires innovative solutions. We need to strengthen the
science-to-policy interaction with IUFRO. And I look forward to an
invitation to Vienna to discuss further how we can contribute and
collaborate”.
*Concluding Remarks*
“Today’s discussions emphasized three key themes: collaboration, diversity,
and interdisciplinarity. Nordic-Baltic cooperation has proven valuable in
advancing research, influencing policy, and addressing global challenges.
We must inspire young researchers, strengthen regional partnerships, and
advocate for sustainable forest management globally. IUFRO’s role as the
global voice of forest science is more critical than ever. Congratulations
to all involved for a successful Congress. Let’s continue building on this
momentum for a sustainable, science-based forestry future - interconnecting
forests, science and people”, said Lisa Sennerby Forsse.
The Summary Day concluded with a shared commitment to ensure the Stockholm
Congress Statement drives tangible outcomes. Looking ahead to the next
IUFRO World Congress in Kenya in 2029, the global forest community left
Stockholm united in its mission to make forests central to addressing
humanity’s most pressing challenges.
*Key Takeaways on Future Collaborations*
- Adalsteinn Sigurgeirsson: “Nordic collaboration has been vital for
Iceland’s forestry progress. Strengthening these partnerships is key to
advancing regional and global goals”.
- Anna Ylä-Anttila: “While Nordic cooperation is valuable, we must avoid
regional insularity. Engaging with the Global South allows mutual learning
and broader solutions”.
- Hans Fredrik Hoen: “We need clear coordination and support for Nordic
