🌏Model Forests around the world, and the conservation and sustainable livelihood initiatives they pioneer, is the theme of a new PANORAMA Solutions in Focus publication released this month.

👩‍🌾🌳🦧From agroforestry and green value chain development to community natural resource governance, this publication highlights 13 solutions from across Asia, Africa, Europe, and South America – emphasising how Model Forests are at the forefront of locally-led and inclusive landscape conservation and restoration.

👧👩‍🦰Women are often on the front lines of forest restoration and non-timber forest product management, yet they're routinely denied land rights and excluded from decisions.

🌲A gender-forward approach to Forest Landscape Restoration (FLR) ensures every voice shapes the work and that its benefits are shared fairly.

🔨The following gender-forward FLR incubation and acceleration protocol was developed by the IUCN, IMFN, and its members. It is designed to simultaneously tackle challenges from gender imbalances to resource constraints -- guiding stakeholders on how to apply IUCN tools holistically across every stage of a FLR project.

🌲Across the world, forests sit at the centre of three interconnected crises: climate change, the collapse of biodiversity, and land degradation, desertification, and drought.

🌐To address these intertwined challenges, the world adopted three landmark agreements known as the Rio Conventions (UNFCCC, CBD, UNCCD).

🙌These agreements are designed to work in tandem to address the triple planetary crisis, but oftentimes opportunities to generate cross-sector benefits are missed.

👪This is where the International Model Forest Network (IMFN) comes in. Bringing together more than 60 Model Forests, across over 35 countries and 70 million hectares of land, the IMFN demonstrates what integrated, community-led forest governance can achieve for both people and nature. In doing so, they are helping countries meet their commitments to all three Rio Conventions at once.

🤝Since 2024, IUCN has been collaborating with the International Model Forest Network (IMFN) to technically support five Model Forests across Asia, Africa and Latin America in initiating and scaling up sustainable forest landscape restoration and management.

🌱Through enhanced FLR planning, monitoring and implementation capacity building, as well as a focus on gender-forward incubation, IUCN has helped communities throughout these forests to generate benefits across sectors—mitigating climate change, protecting biodiversity and fostering sustainable economies.
