Progreso en la Declaración de Nueva York sobre los Bosques

The report finds that improvements in forest governance are too slow to quantifiably reduce deforestation, with significant gaps remaining in the legal recognition of indigenous land rights and the enforcement of laws against illegal logging. While some progress has been made in transparency and demand-side regulations in emerging Asian economies, corruption and violence against land defenders continue to undermine forest conservation efforts.

• Global natural forest loss accelerated after the adoption of the NYDF, with the average annual rate of loss between 2014 and 2017 being 42 percent higher than in the previous decade.
• Weak forest governance results in significant economic and ecological losses, estimated at over USD 17 billion annually due to tax evasion, loss of ecosystem functions, and community conflicts.
• Illegal deforestation is prevalent in major commodity production; there is a considerable risk of forest law violations in two-thirds of the main timber-producing countries and in all top tropical producers of beef, soy, and palm oil.
• International cooperation in law enforcement has successfully countered illegal timber trade, resulting in the seizure of wood valued at USD 1.5 billion since 2012.
• Emerging Asian economies, specifically China, Indonesia, Malaysia, the Republic of Korea, and Vietnam, have introduced demand-oriented regulations to ban the sale and import of illegally harvested timber.
• Gender inequality persists in forest governance; women are 24 percent less likely than men to actively participate in the decision-making or implementation of REDD+ projects.
• Legal recognition of forest rights for indigenous peoples and local communities increased from nearly 11 percent in 2002 to over 15 percent in 2017 across 41 countries, though 33–39 percent of occupied lands in 14 evaluated countries remain unrecognized.
• Violence against land and forest defenders has increased annually since 2014, driven by land demand, failure to respect the principle of free, prior and informed consent, and weak tenure recognition.
