Water-forest interactions complex but crucial in ecosystem service delivery
Forested watersheds provide an estimated 75 percent of the world’s accessible freshwater resources and over half the Earth’s population depends on these for domestic, agricultural, industrial and environmental purposes.
The Forest and Water Champions (FWC) is an initiative of the United Nations (FAO), the International Union for the Conservation of Nature (IUCN), the Stockholm International Water Institute and the SIWI Swedish Water House to enhance the attention to the important role played by the forest-water nexus in securing resilient landscapes.
