Spanish forest strategy Horizonte 2050

The Spanish Forest Strategy 2050 outlines a comprehensive framework for forest policy in Spain aimed at addressing ecological challenges and promoting sustainable forestry practices. Approved by the Council of Ministers in December 2022, this document replaces earlier strategies and aligns with international commitments while responding to domestic needs. The overarching goal of the strategy is to achieve well-managed forest ecosystems by 2050, focusing on biodiversity conservation, combatting climate change, and enhancing socio-economic development in rural areas. Specific objectives include increasing forested areas, improving forest management plans, and promoting the circular bioeconomy. This strategy highlights a collaborative approach involving various government levels to ensure effective implementation and monitoring of forest management practices.
