Forests for Our Common Future: Halting and Reversing Deforestation by 2030
COP28 High-level Dialogue of the Collaborative Partnership on Forests

Despite their critical roles in sustaining people's health and livelihoods, regulating climate, and harboring biodiversity, the global forest area continues to shrink. 

In 2021, the Collaborative Partnership on Forests (CPF) released its joint statement “Challenges and Opportunities in Turning the Tide on Deforestation” at the 16th session of the UN Forum on Forests in support of the implementation of the UNStrategic Plan for Forests and its Global Forest Goals. Most recently, CPF member organizations launched the “CPF Joint Call to Action for Forests Towards 2030”, calling for enhanced action and political will to strengthen the implementation of forest solutions. The Joint Call to Action includes the CPF members’ commitments to strengthening shared efforts on: implementation and action; data, science and innovation; finance for forests; and communication and awareness-raising.

The CPF High-Level Dialogue will provide an opportunity for the leaders of the UN agencies and other CPF members to share their perspectives and outline their individual and joint actions to accelerate efforts to halt and reverse deforestation by 2030. The dialogue will also serve to identify the next steps to be taken to realize the enhanced ambitions of the CPF, including through supporting countries in enhancing and implementing their Nationally Determined Contributions to the Paris Agreement and preparations for the midterm review of the International Arrangement on Forests in 2024.
