Information obtained by NFMS can support countries in their efforts to build confidence in climate actions and increase the effectiveness and transparency of those actions under the Paris Agreement. This webinar highlighted the specific links between NFMS and climate action. A compilation of case studies on forest data transparency, from 6 countries, including Bangladesh, Chile, Costa Rica, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Ghana, and Papua New Guinea, was presented during the online event. Representatives from Ghana and Papua New Guinea joined the webinar to share experiences and elaborate on the case studies from their countries. Also, the webinar launched ARENA, FAO’s newest, free, open-source platform, created with support from the UN-REDD Programme to advance NFMS. These themes aimed to inform practitioners and other experts and help guide countries that are in the process of designing or implementing NFMS.
