With wildfires a growing threat around the world, countries urgently need to shift their attention from reaction and response to preventing them in the first place. The Global Fire Management Hub (or “Fire Hub”) brings together key partners to strengthen countries’ capacities to implement integrated fire management with the major impact of reducing the many negative impacts of wildfires on livelihoods and landscapes.
Through a focus on knowledge and data sharing; capacity building; wildfire-resilient communities; fire risk assessment and early warning; and policy support, the Fire Hub accelerates integrated fire management at regional, national, and community levels by making available the best information and training to support countries in a coherent, comprehensive and consistent way.
The first Plenary of the Global Fire Management Hub is an exciting opportunity to gather the global Fire Hub community in one place. Join us online or in FAO headquarters, Rome.
The Fire Hub Bulletin is a free quarterly newsletter with the latest news, publications and updates from the Fire Hub
