Forest Declaration Assessment Launch 2024

Forest Declaration Assessment 2024

Launched in 2015, the Forest Declaration Assessment provides objective data on the performance of countries, companies, financial institutions and others in keeping their forest protection pledges. For ten years the Assessment has tracked progress on global pledges, including the 2014 New York Declaration on Forests, and since 2021, the Glasgow Leaders' Declaration on Forests and Land Use — in addition to pledges on restoration and biodiversity.
