Organizational Setting

The Forestry Division (NFO) leads FAO's work in promoting sustainable forest management and providing leadership on the environmental, social and economic dimensions of forestry, including its contributions to poverty reduction and food security and nutrition.

It liaises with Members, civil society and the private sector in aspects ranging from development of effective forest policies to forest conservation and management issues and strengthens the role of forests in climate change mitigation and adaptation.

The Division also collects analyses and disseminates information on the world's forest resources and on the production trade and consumption of wood and non-wood forest products.


The EU Forest Governance and Value Chains Programme (FGVP) implemented by
NFO supports the implementation of Forest Partnerships between the European Union and Partner Countries.

Forest Partnerships are a new and key instrument of the European Union's Action to promote sustainable forest management and value chains.

They are based on a holistic and integrated approach to forests, reflecting a high-level commitment to enhancing the role of forests in sustainable and inclusive national development whilst improving sector law enforcement, governance and trade.

Forest Partnerships promote innovative investment and finance models to create efficient, pragmatic and impactful links between government, industry and forest communities.

The FGVP support to Forest Partnerships revolves around two pillars:
1 improving governance for sustainable forest management, forest protection and restoration, and plantation development; and
2 developing legal and sustainable forest-based value chains.
