The ICP Forests Chairman and the Programme Co-ordinating Centre wish you

a peaceful and relaxing holiday season and a happy and healthy new year 2025.

Once again, we would like to express our sincere gratitude to all those involved in ICP Forests and especially the participating countries for their continued commitment and co-operation in monitoring forest ecosystems across the UNECE region.

The PCC is pleased to announce the online publication of this year's ICP Forests Technical Report: Forest Condition in Europe - The 2024 Assessment and its online supplement. It can be downloaded here; printed copies will be available soon.

The short film “Our Changing Forests” has won an award in the category “Scientists-as-Filmmakers” at the 6^th Global Science Film Festival.

"Our Changing Forests" uses ICP Forests data and was made by Ross Shackleton, Kingshuk Kapuri, and Chaitanya Arya. It also features our Chairman Marco Ferretti who explains, among other things, what can be done to help forests adapt to climate change.

Congrats to the “Scientists-as-Filmmakers”!
