Detail description
Forest management initiatives in Italy, including fondiaria associations and forest agreements in Piemonte and Lombardia, enable collective land stewardship and active forest management. Over 60 associations formed in five years support sustainable practices, with public funding and private investment via FSC and PEFC certifications. Ecosystem service markets and carbon credits are emerging as key revenue sources for long-term sustainability, underpinned by innovative governance and fair compensation mechanisms.
