This report by the Forest Declaration Assessment evaluates national actions for climate mitigation in the forestry sector, specifically regarding Goal 7 of the New York Declaration on Forests (NYDF). It argues that while some progress has been made in monitoring and policy formation, current efforts are insufficient to end forest loss and greenhouse gas emissions by 2030. The document provides a comprehensive set of recommendations for governments to increase ambition, align financing, and implement six core strategies to protect and restore forests.

This briefing paper discusses the findings of the 2020 progress assessment of the New York Declaration on Forests (NYDF) Goal 3, specifically focusing on the risks that mining and infrastructure pose to forests and the threats emerging from the global transition to low-carbon technologies.

This research paper uses spatial modeling to identify drivers of forest loss and predict future deforestation within six CARPE landscapes in the Democratic Republic of the Congo between 2015 and 2025.
