The Ad Hoc Expert Group (AHEG) was established at the tenth meeting of the UN Forum on Forests (UNFF 10) with a mandate to review the performance and effectiveness of the International Arrangement on Forests (IAF) and to develop recommendations on a strategic direction for the IAF for the period beyond 2015. The AHEG will consider stakeholder input and the results of an IAF assessment in order to provide recommendations to the eleventh session of the UN Forum on Forests (UNFF 11) on the function and institutional arrangements of the IAF for the period beyond 2015.
