CIFOR-ICRAF s’attaque aux défis et aux opportunités locales tout en apportant des solutions aux problèmes mondiaux concernant les forêts, les paysages, les populations et la planète.

Nous fournissons des preuves et des solutions concrètes pour transformer l’utilisation des terres et la production alimentaire : conserver et restaurer les écosystèmes, répondre aux crises mondiales du climat, de la malnutrition, de la biodiversité et de la désertification. En bref, nous améliorons la vie des populations.

CIFOR-ICRAF publie chaque année plus de 750 publications sur l’agroforesterie, les forêts et le changement climatique, la restauration des paysages, les droits, la politique forestière et bien d’autres sujets encore, et ce dans plusieurs langues. .

CIFOR–ICRAF publishes over 750 publications every year on agroforestry, forests and climate change, landscape restoration, rights, forest policy and much more – in multiple languages.

CIFOR–ICRAF addresses local challenges and opportunities while providing solutions to global problems for forests, landscapes, people and the planet.

We deliver actionable evidence and solutions to transform how land is used and how food is produced: conserving and restoring ecosystems, responding to the global climate, malnutrition, biodiversity and desertification crises. In short, improving people’s lives.

Focus Issue: Mountain Forests and the SDGs

Exporter la citation

Mountain forests play a key role in securing mountain livelihoods by providing timber, fuelwood, food, fodder, and medicine. In addition to these provisioning services, they offer cultural services as well as locally and globally significant regulating and supporting services, such as protection from natural hazards, carbon sequestration, and biodiversity. These important services provided by mountain forests have been explicitly acknowledged in 3 targets of the United Nations' Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)—targets 6.6, 15.1, and 15.4 (https://sustainabledevelopment.un.org/sdgs). But what does this imply concretely for research, policy, and practice The Guest Editors of this Focus Issue, Georg Gratzer and William S. Keeton, invited researchers to explore interrelations between the SDGs and forest management issues around the world, in 2 workshop sessions that took place at the ‘‘Mountains of Our Future Earth'' conference in Perth, Scotland (5–8 October 2015). Most of the papers published in this issue of MRD have emerged from these workshops and the subsequent call for papers inviting authors to reflect on the relation between forests and the global sustainable development agenda.
