Welcome

The Urban Forestry Community brings together stakeholders from all over the world looking to promote Urban and Peri-urban Forestry and Greening (UPFG). This interactive Community platform provides users with the opportunity to discuss, share knowledge and learn about good practices, related to optimizing the role of trees and forests in and around cities to alleviate poverty.

The Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations leads international efforts to defeat hunger. Serving both developed and developing countries, FAO acts as a neutral forum where all nations meet as equals to negotiate agreements and debate policy. FAO is also a source of knowledge and information.
