The world is gearing up for action on climate change and sustainable development. In 2016, CIFOR research showed how putting landscapes and forests at the fore can promote integrated action with better outcomes for human well-being, equity and the environment.
Our new ten-year strategy evolved from a deep understanding of the many ways forestry contributes to sustainable development. Our work is grounded by a three-pillar approach that spans six thematic work areas, which are aligned with the UN’s 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

CIFOR takes a rights-based approach to gender equality. Beyond the simple recognition that failing to understand local-level gender dynamics can skew research findings, we ground our work in the idea that all humans deserve an equal opportunity to thrive. Understanding gender dynamics is both a focus of specific research projects and a key aspect in all of CIFOR’s activities.
