2020年のNYDF進捗状況評価では、持続可能な開発を達成するための2つの補完的で重要な目標に焦点を当てている。

目標3　2020年までに農林業以外の経済セクターからの森林減少を大幅に削減する
目標4　貧困を削減し、森林減少を引き起こす原因となっている人々の基本的なニーズ（自給自足農業やエネルギーのための木質燃料への依存など）を持続可能で公平な開発を促進する代替的な方法で満たすことを支援する

人々の持続可能な生計を支えながら、インフラ開発や採掘による森林減少を削減するという目標3と目標4の達成に向けた進捗は遅々として進んでいない。採取、搾取、消費への依存というこれまでの経済開発戦略を、森林と人々に価値を置くという代替経路に劇的に転換しなければ、世界は持続可能な開発、気候危機...
