International Learning Exchange 2023: Radical Forest Futures
The vision of the “Future of the Forests” is not just an idea; it’s a transformational perspective that redefines the role of forests especially in the lives of forest-dependent communities. It goes beyond traditional views of forest preservation and envisions the ecosystems as dynamic drivers of sustainable development.
In this groundbreaking approach, local communities with secure tenure take center stage.
Adopting sustainable practices, such as ecologically sustainable Seasonal Forest Products collection using cutting-edge technology, communities can spur job creation and ignite wealth creation at the local level. The possibilities are endless, and the benefits are profound.
List of Themes:
