About the event

The objective of the workshop was to discuss and validate the findings of the 11 preliminary studies, particularly with regard to identifying gaps, obstacles and opportunities in financing Sustainable Forest Management (SFM)in Low Forest Countries (LFCCs), and hold discussions between participants on basis of the
studies and feedback from the first LFCC workshop held in Tehran, Iran.

The workshop was also to initiate a network of forest financing stakeholders at the international to lay the basis for sustainability of the project and the implementation of its findings and also contribute to
raising awareness about forest financing – one of the main factors currently hampering the allocation of funds to SFM.
