Forest Knowledge Gateway

The Forest Knowledge Gateway is a dynamic knowledge base, continuously updated with new insights, tools, and practical guidance on forest restoration, climate change adaptation, and integrative forest management. By hosting a growing library of curated resources, the Gateway reflects evolving knowledge and practices in restoration. Hundreds of resources can be explored through a detailed taxonomy organized by topic, restoration purpose, geographic region, and more. 

This Gateway has been thoughtfully designed for four key forest stakeholder groups — Landowners & Practitioners, Planners & Implementers, Policy Actors, and Funders & Investors. Users are guided through a high-level synthesis of the most relevant knowledge, resources, and tools to support their specific needs. Built around common barriers and enablers, it serves as a living guidance tool for experts across Europe and beyond. 

A set of online guidelines, covering areas such as monitoring, forest restoration practices, and upscaling strategies, provides more in-depth support for users seeking topic-specific guidance. 

Created by experts for other experts, the Forest Knowledge Gateway is a joint initiative developed in close collaboration with a wide range of research and practice organizations, co-designed with key stakeholders, and supported by policy actors. It was created as part of the EU Horizon 2020 project SUPERB and the Horizon Europe project TRANSFORMIT and is led by the European Forest Institute.
