Forest resources

Forests cover almost a third of the Earth's land area, half of which – two million hectares – is in warm regions. Natural and planted forests have a major social, economic and ecological impact on a global level, for the planet, and also on a national and local level for individual countries, firms and people. ÁùºÏ²Êͼ¿â supplies the scientific bases required for sustainable management of natural or planted forest ecosystems in humid and drier regions, so as to boost their contribution to the development of countries and people in the global South.
