Only eight years remain to achieve the twin global goals of halting and reversing deforestation by 2030. Despite encouraging signs, not a single global indicator is on track to meet these 2030 goals of of stopping forest loss and degradation and restoring 350 million hectares of forest landscape.

Governments and companies have yet to make the bold sectoral, policy, and operational reforms needed to protect forests from forest-risk economic activities.

Currently, domestic and international mitigation finance for forests averages USD 2.3 billion per year – less than 1 percent of the necessary total.

Too many countries are putting the 2030 forest goals at risk by phasing out or rolling back forest protections.

As major carbon sinks, Indigenous and community lands are the hidden foundation for reaching climate targets - but they are under threat.
