"PROFOR remained relevant, technically strong and innovative over its 18 years at the World Bank. From 2002 to 2020, it received $52 million from its donors and implemented over 270 activities across its four themes of livelihoods, governance, finance and cross-sectoral collaboration. These activities in turn leveraged approximately $1.6 billion of World Bank lending, a significant achievement in influence for a knowledge program."

Globally, estimates of the market value of illegal logging activity range from $30 billion to $157 billion, with foregone tax revenue in the neighborhood of $6 billion to $9 billion. Revenue leakage from otherwise legal forest activity is also significant. These are vital resources and revenues that are being lost, predominantly from developing countries that need them the most."

In addition, wildfires will be another burden for countries to contend with as they respond to the COVID-19 crisis."
