The UN forest vision is a world where all types of forests are sustainable managed, contribute to sustainable development and provide economic, social, environmental and cultural benefits for present and future generations. The joint UNECE and FAO (UN Economic Commission for Europe/ Food and Agriculture Organization of the UN) Forestry and Timber Section supports developing evidence-based policies for sustainable forest management. The UNECE/FAO Team of Specialists on Forest Products and Wood Energy Statistics was created to: advise and support work on forest products statistics; suggest and support proposals for increasing the reliability and visibility of forest products statistics; and, advise on implementation of data, monitoring, reporting and assessment relating to forest products statistics. The Team is led by the Department’s Francisco X Aguilar.
