The State of the World’s Forests 2024
Detalles
| Innovation is essential to achieving the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development and the Sustainable Development Goals. It is also an important accelerator for the transformation towards more efficient, inclusive, resilient and sustainable agri-food systems and for achieving global goals such as the eradication of hunger and poverty and the sustainable management and use of natural resources. But innovation doesn't come in a vacuum. Among other things, it requires enabling policies, strong and transformative partnerships, investment, an inclusive culture that is open to and encourages new ideas, and a willingness to take calculated risks. This edition of The State of the World's Forests (SOFO) provides highlights on the state of the world's forests and explores the transformative power of evidence-based innovation in the forest sector, from new technologies to creative and successful policies and institutional changes, to new ways to get finance to forest owners and managers. Eighteen case studies from around the world provide an insight into the wide range of technological, social, political, institutional and financial innovations in the forest sector – and combinations of them – that are being tested and applied in real-world conditions. SOFO 2024 identifies barriers to innovation and the factors that facilitate it, and lists five actions to empower people to apply their creativity in the forest sector to solve problems and scale up positive impacts. |
