| A roadmap to EU forest resilience - Tackling climate change and forest disturbances Wednesday, 8 May 2024 | 09:30 - 10:45 CET REGISTER HERE
Forests play a vital role in climate change adaptation and mitigation. Yet, climate change is increasingly causing extreme weather conditions, and damages such as wildfires, windstorms and floods are harming forests all over Europe.
To address these challenges, the European Commission introduced the Forest Monitoring Law in November 2023, a regulation on a monitoring framework for resilient European forests.
More resilient and diverse forests are essential to cope better with environmental disturbances and to adapt to climate change. While stakeholders generally support this proposal, some find it vague and call for stronger initiatives to achieve forest resilience.
Join this Euractiv Virtual Conference to discuss how to make EU forests more resilient against climate change and disturbances.
