Forest Trends Impact Report 2024
A Rainbow of Solutions
Next year, we’re celebrating the 25th anniversary of Forest Trends. We find ourselves reflecting on the journey we’ve been on. In some ways, we’ve made amazing progress, and in other respects, not nearly enough. We are still living in an economic system that puts us on a dead-end path — extracting natural resources like there’s […]

State of the Blue Carbon Market
An Ocean of Potential
By Tundi AgardyMany countries have already catalyzed major action toward carbon emissions reductions through reducing deforestation, forest degradation, conservation, sustainable management of forests and enhancement of forest carbon stocks (REDD+). The opportunities for ocean and coastal ecosystems to complement these mitigation efforts are many and are aided by the extensive experience gained through forest carbon initiatives. However, […]
Pathways to value
Achieving a breakthrough for international climate finance for tropical forest conservation
By Rupert EdwardsReversing the global trend of tropical forest loss remains the largest barrier for natural climate solutions contributing to climate goals at their fullest potential. This paper looks at past challenges to scaling finance to end tropical deforestation and restore degraded forests. We then consider a set of core “pathways to value” for REDD+. Within these […]
Does the EU Deforestation Regulation Comply with WTO requirements?
By Duncan BrackIn recent years, global concern over deforestation has intensified, alongside heightened recognition of the role consumer countries play in this loss through the demand for “forest-risk commodities” like beef, soy, palm oil, and timber. In response, many nations, particularly in Europe, North America, and Asia, are adopting regulatory frameworks to sever the link between their […]
Illegal Deforestation and Agricultural Commodities: Uganda
By Forest Policy, Trade, and Finance InitiativeAgricultural conversion is the main driver of forest loss in Uganda. The majority of Uganda’s forest-risk agricultural products are sold and consumed domestically (particularly cassava, beef, maize, and groundnuts). Shifting agriculture is responsible for 94 percent of Uganda’s forest loss, with a further two percent linked to commercial agriculture and mining. While there are good […]

Haciendo el Camino 2024
Resultados del Proyecto Infraestructura Natural para la Seguridad Hídrica
By Mia SmithLas sequías, inundaciones, incendios y huaycos de los últimos años demuestran la vulnerabilidad del Perú ante los riesgos hídricos y climáticos. La infraestructura natural–como bosques, bofedales, pastizales, matorrales y páramos– junto con las prácticas tradicionales de conservación del agua y los suelos, contribuyen a reducir estos riesgos. También proporcionan importantes beneficios colaterales, como la mitigación […]
