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.

Launchpad: Global Peatlands Initiative

The Global Peatlands Initiative is a new effort by NGOs, scientists, research institutes and the private sector to save one of the world’s largest carbon stocks, which have crucial importance in fighting climate change. In terms of scale and scope, the initiative – aiming to increase the conservation, restoration and sustainable management of peatlands in countries with significant peat deposits – goes beyond any recent collaborative efforts on peatlands.
