How can we translate the Global Biodiversity Framework into practical action? Born more than 30 years ago, the Model Forest approach is a broad participatory process where multiple stakeholders, land managers, and natural resource users join forces in landscape partnerships and work together toward a shared vision for their landscape.
Through this integrated management approach, people on the ground across more than 60 Model Forests in more than 30 countries agree on and generate comprehensive plans that truly reflect the main actions and priorities needed to advance sustainable and resilient landscapes. From the bottom up, they present us with the most coherent pathways to biodiversity conservation and funding.
