Forests sit at the center of the international environmental agenda and are increasingly recognized as critical to climate mitigation, biodiversity conservation, and sustainable development. In recent years, global commitments including the Glasgow Leaders’ Declaration on Forests, the Kunming–Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework (GBF),



UNCCD COP16 and UNFCCC COP30 outcomes have reaffirmed the urgent need to halt deforestation and accelerate restoration by 2030.

The European Union (EU) has been a general leader on forests and sustainable value chains, including through the European Green Deal, the EU Forest Partnerships, the Global Gateway, the EU Regulation on Deforestation-Free Products (EUDR), EU's Forest Law Enforcement, Governance, and Trade (FLEGT) Action Plan, and EU’s associated support for MBD-led forest finance efforts such as the World Bank's Transformative Carbon Asset Facility (TCAF), Forest Carbon Partnership Facility (FCPF) BioCarbon Fund Initiative for Sustainable Forest Landscapes (ISFL), and GGGI’s EU Sustainable Finance Trust Fund.
