?? ESA’s GDA Forest Management activity is facilitating the integration of EO-based solutions into supported forestry initiatives of International Financial Institutions (IFIs), ensuring that data-driven insights - such as real-time canopy disturbance monitoring and biomass mapping - are effectively applied to decision-making. By focusing on: ? Capacity building to foster local expertise ? Stakeholder engagement to ensure relevance and trust ? Transparent methodologies for easy replication ???? EO offers transformative solutions for forest management - especially when IFIs embrace its potential. The success of its predecessor EO4SD-FM demonstrated that targeted training, collaboration, and clear methodologies drive real adoption in forestry operations. Now, under ESA’s GDA Forest Management, involvement of IFIs and local experts can scale these innovations, making EO a powerful tool in the fight against deforestation and climate change. #AcceleratingImpact ?? https://lnkd.in/e_XgbcXC Asian Development Bank (ADB), Caribou Space, European Space Agency - ESA, GAF AG, GisBox, Inter-American Development Bank, International Fund for Agricultural Development (IFAD), IGN FI, ONF (Office National des Forêts), unique land use GmbH, The World Bank Christoph Aubrecht, Yves Barthélemy, Alex Chunet, Fabio Cian, Giulia Costella, Fabian Enssle, Frank Martin Seifert, Anika Ruess
