A Collective Approach for Ending Deforestation and Accelerating Restoration
The Forest Data Partnership strengthens collaboration and application around global monitoring of commodity-driven deforestation, forest degradation and restoration efforts across the globe.
Governments and companies around the world are pledging to help end deforestation and accelerate restoration in order to avert the worst impacts of climate change, protect against biodiversity loss and safeguard the many benefits of forests to people and nature.
The Forest Data Partnership aims to halt and reverse forest loss from commodity production by collaboratively improving global monitoring and supply chain tracking and accelerating restoration. It aligns partners around the data and ensures access for stakeholders across sectors to consistent, validated open-source geospatial forest-risk commodity data. The result is credible, systematic monitoring, verification and accountability towards progress in reducing commodity-driven deforestation and restoring degraded lands.
The Partnership develops a framework through five action-oriented workstreams that:
Engage Partners and Stakeholders
Align on Foundational Data Gaps
Innovate Demand-Driven Approaches
Deploy Data Delivery Mechanisms
Assess Impact
