Innovation and technology are revolutionizing the way we protect and use forests as the world faces unprecedented challenges threatening human well-being and nature. New solutions are transforming forestry, allowing more accurate mapping and monitoring, empowering Indigenous Peoples to be the guardians of forests, promoting ecosystem restoration and driving the development of more sustainable wood and forest products.

Join us for this hybrid event to find out about some of the outstanding innovations that are helping to protect forests and unlock the many benefits they bring. Interpretation is available in the six official UN languages: Arabic, Chinese, English, French, Spanish and Russian.
