Its aims are the conservation of biological diversity, the sustainable use of biological resources, and the fair and equitable sharing of benefits arising from the use of genetic resources. One of the major challenges facing the Convention on Biological Diversity is the communication of research results in a way that provides the policy makers, their advisors, the scientific community and other stakeholders with helpful insights Major factors leading to biodiversity loss are habitat loss and degradation, invasive alien species, overuse of resources and pollution. Due to the complexity of these factors, various approaches and strategies are being used to reduce biodiversity loss. All, however, require the best available scientific information that allows the development and implementation of sound management strategies. The goal of the CBD Technical Publications Series is to contribute to the dissemination of up-to-date and accurate information on selected topics that are important for the conservation of biological diversity, the sustainable use of its components and the equitable sharing of its benefits. A large and growing body of evidence has clearly established the need to disseminate synthesis publications relevant to CBD objectives and selected reports presented at CBD meetings. The Technical Publications Series is intended to: • Foster scientific and technical cooperation; • Improve communication between the Convention and the scientific community; • Increase awareness of current biodiversity-related problems and concerns; and • Facilitate widespread and effective use of the growing body of scientific and technical information on conserving and using biological diversity The CBD Technical Publications Series comes at a time when the international community through the Conference of the Parties to the Convention has committed itself to achieving tangible results in all aspects of the sustainable management of biological diversity for social and economic purposes. We therefore believe that this series will be useful to the broader scientific community and those concerned with biodiversity management. I am very pleased to make available to the scientific community and those actively involved in biodiversity management the third publication in the CBD Technical Series, addressing Forest biodiversity. It is my hope that this publication will broaden our understanding of the complexity of the issue and at the same time facilitate the implementation of remedial measures to reduce or halt biodiversity loss. I wish to express my sincere gratitude to all those who have contributed in one-way or another in the preparation and production of this series.
