10th World Forest Week
28 September – 2 October 2026 | FAO headquarters | Rome, Italy
The tenth-anniversary edition of World Forestry Week will bring together FAO Member Nations, partner organizations, including members of the Collaborative Partnership on Forests and the Collaborative Partnership on Sustainable Wildlife Management, and youth in a lively programme of events, high- level dialogues and exhibitions.
Under the theme, “Forests for food, resilience and prosperity”, World Forest Week 2026 will highlight the vital yet often underrecognized contributions of forests and trees to food security, nutrition, livelihoods, biodiversity, and resilient agrifood systems. Showcasing practical solutions, innovation, best practices and strategic partnerships, World Forestry Week will support the 28th Session of the Committee on Forestry across diverse but interconnected topics, from forest foods, forest and landscape restoration and integrated fire management to forest- based bioeconomy approaches, data and monitoring, investment in people and innovation, wildlife management, finance, and the role of forests in sustainable urban development, including through the FAO Green Cities Initiative.
Further information will be published on this website in due course.
