The 2023 Forest Declaration Assessment reports that the world is off track to meet 2030 forest goals, with 2022 global gross deforestation reaching 6.6 million hectares. While over 50 countries are on track to eliminate deforestation, including progress in Indonesia and Malaysia, these successes are offset by massive losses in other regions. The report emphasizes a critical funding gap, noting that only US$ 2.2 billion in annual public funds are directed toward forests, and criticizes the lack of transparency and failure to protect the rights of Indigenous Peoples and local communities.

  • Global deforestation rates in 2022 exceeded the trajectory required to meet 2030 targets, with gross deforestation reaching 6.6 million hectares—21% higher than necessary—and primary tropical forest loss reaching 4.1 million hectares, which is 33% higher than the required trajectory.
  • Public funding for forests is severely insufficient, totaling only US$ 2.2 billion annually, a sum the report compares to the cost of constructing a few sports stadiums.
  • Private financial institutions continue to fund high-risk deforestation; the Forest 500 estimates that private financial institutions provided US$ 6.1 trillion in 2022 to companies with the highest risk of driving tropical deforestation through agricultural commodity production.
  • While over 50 countries are on track to eliminate deforestation by 2030, with Indonesia and Malaysia showing consistent reductions in tropical Asia, these individual successes do not compensate for overall global forest loss and degradation.
  • There is a systemic lack of transparency and data regarding forest degradation in temperate and boreal forests and the progress of global restoration efforts, which hinders accountability for governments and corporations.
