This workshop will bring together leading experts in sustainable forestry with the aim of defining a “set of key questions and suggested methodologies for a research agenda that would eventually lead to concrete policy recommendations for the promotion of positive synergies between carbon sequestration, biodiversity conservation and other ecosystem services, as well as local development.” The meeting is being organized by the QUEST (Quantifying and Understanding the Earth System) programme, which is funded by the UK’s Natural Environment Research Council.
