The 21st century wildfires will potentially account for an estimated 30% of GHG emissions in the Mediterranean area. One of the main causes of wildfires is inadequate land management leading to accumulation of dry biomass and landscape simplification.

The project, funded by EUKI, will promote the reduction of fire-related GHG emissions in three target landscapes in Greece, Montenegro and France.

In close collaboration with our partners, we enhance the capacities of decision and policy makers and practitioners on the application of Forest Landscape Restoration (FLR) principles. With one goal: restoring forest landscapes with fire-smart solutions.
