Through its work, FOREST EUROPE (The Ministerial Conference on the Protection of Forests in Europe) secures a strong and healthy basis for animals, plants, biodiversity, natural products and a clean environment, and promotes the development of forest-based jobs, recreation, leisure and tourism. The FOREST EUROPE signatory countries and participants focus on elaborating strategies and solutions that meet new challenges such as climate change, bio-energy production and water protection. The work of FOREST EUROPE aims at maximising the contribution of Europe’s forests to the ecological, social and economic well-being of the continent.
