ep6 - Youth call to action for intergenerational collaboration; co-creating pathways for a sustainable future with forests

In this sixth episode of the  <a href="https://worldforestvoices.wordpress.com/2022/04/01/podcast/" rel="noreferrer noopener" target="_blank">#WorldForestVoices podcast</a>, we bring your attention to youth in the forest and land-use sector. Youth are very instrumental in building green, healthy, and resilient futures. Over the recent past, young people have continued to air their voices on the need to foster intergenerational collaborations, build their capacity and strengthen their position in contributing to creating a sustainable future. Most recently, youth at the 7th Mediterranean Week released a <a href="https://vii-med.forestweek.org/sites/default/files/editor/mediterranean_youth_statement_final_29_3_1.pdf" rel="noreferrer noopener" target="_blank">statement</a> conceived through a dialogue on the main challenges and recommendations highlighted by young people in the region, who also shared their initiatives, work, and research. The <a href="https://www.fao.org/event/world-forestry-congress/en" rel="noreferrer noopener" target="_blank">XV World Forestry Congress</a> also adopted the <a href="https://www.fao.org/3/cc0249en/cc0249en.pdf" rel="noreferrer noopener" target="_blank">Work with Us – Youth Call for Action</a> which highlights key areas to leverage the potential of youth and enhance their contribution to building a sustainable future with forests. In this podcast, we host Erica Di Girolami who discusses the “<a href="https://www.fao.org/3/cc0249en/cc0249en.pdf" rel="noreferrer noopener" target="_blank">Work with Us – Youth Call to Action</a>” and Lucia Rivera who delves into the <a href="https://vii-med.forestweek.org/sites/default/files/editor/mediterranean_youth_statement_final_29_3_1.pdf" rel="noreferrer noopener" target="_blank">Mediterranean youth statement</a>.  Erica is the Focal Point for the <a href="https://www.unmgcy.org/unforestforum" rel="noreferrer noopener" target="_blank">UNFF-MGCY</a>, and Lucia is a consultant for the <a href="https://www.fao.org/in-action/forest-landscape-restoration-mechanism/our-work/gl/en/#:~:text=At%20a%20global%20level%2C%20the,capacity%20development%2C%20financing%20and%20monitoring." rel="noreferrer noopener" target="_blank">Forest and Landscape Restoration Mechanism (FLRM)</a> and the <a href="https://www.fao.org/forestry/silva-mediterranea/en/" rel="noreferrer noopener" target="_blank">Silva Mediterranean Secretariat</a> at FAO. They share their journey into forestry, their current work, and their connection to nature/the environment. Then they provide us a brief overview of the recent youth calls to work with the youth for a sustainable future in the forest and land-use sector and why it is important for other stakeholders to heed the voice of youth and adopt the call. Lastly, they share with us their hopes for the future regarding uplifting the status of youth in contributing to building a green healthy, and resilient future with forests and nature. Listen and enjoy the voices of people and forests! <a href="https://worldforestvoices.wordpress.com/2022/04/01/podcast/">Catch up with previous episodes here</a>.

ep5 - The state of the world’s forests: Where to from here?

It is no doubt that the world's forests are playing an increasingly invaluable role in sustainable development – including among others, provision of genetic resources, raw materials, food, carbon sequestration and climate regulation, biodiversity conservation – hence it is vital to know the state of forests. In this fifth episode of the World Forest Voices, we host Mr. Ewald Rametsteiner who will unpack with us the state of State of the World’s Forests Report 2022. The report gives an outlook on the progress to meeting global targets and goals related to forests and effectiveness of policies, actions and approaches, in terms of both conservation and sustainable development outcomes. First, Mr. Ewald briefly shares with us his personal journey into forestry. Then he unpacks some of the core aspects of the SOFO2022 and some fundamental issues shaping the state of forests. Last but not least, he shares with us his hopes for the future regarding forests. Listen and enjoy the voices of people and forests!

ep4 - Media and journalism as mouthpieces for forests in an era of multiple truths and competing and conflicting story lines

Social media, traditional media and journalism play an instrumental role in services as the eyes of the public, access to information and amplifying messages. With such a capacity, the media as a whole possesses an enormous potential to amplify messages and accelerate mass mobilization for action on forests and the environment – however, it is evident that the media is still far from sufficiently projecting the role of forests in the global sustainable development agenda. In this fourth episode of the #WorldForestVoices podcast, we hosted two special guests: <a href="https://elnaschutz.com/" target="_blank">Elna Schutz</a>, a freelance journalist specialising in narrative journalism and podcasting, focusing on stories around science, health, and more, and <a href="https://www.yeshielpanchia.com/" target="_blank">Yeshiel Panchia</a>, a freelance journalist working in multimedia, producing breaking news photos, photo-essays and video content for local and international publications. Both our guests participated in the <a href="https://www.fao.org/event/world-forestry-congress/media/media-seminar/en" target="_blank">GLF-FAO media seminar organised</a> in the lead of the World Forestry Congress. Listen and enjoy the voices of people and forests! And do not miss out on the next episode, subscribe to the #WorldForestVoices podcast on your favorite podcast platform.
