| Summary: | The objectives of this country forest
note (CFN) are to identify and determine how to address key
opportunities and challenges for sustainable forestry and
forest-smart interventions in the Dominican Republic.
Essential questions addressed by the CFN are the importance
of forests and how the forestry sector can achieve its full
potential. The responses are framed by two perspectives: the
importance of forests in boosting economic development in
the Dominican Republic, reducing poverty, and facilitating
the sustainability of such development and the role of
forestry in the context of global issues, such as greenhouse
gas (GHG) emission mitigation, nationally determined
contribution (NDC) objectives, global poverty reduction, and
the services provided by global ecosystems. |
