DESCRIPTION
About 1,050 people, including more than 200 official climate change negotiators, attended Forest Day 5 on the sidelines of the 17th UNFCCC Conference of Parties in Durban on 4 December 2011. Participants at the discussion forums were asked to vote on a series of questions pertinent to forestry, climate change and particularly REDD+. These are the results from the afternoon sessions. Forest Day is convened by the Center for International Forestry Research on behalf of the Collaborative Partnership on Forests. The 2011 event was hosted jointly with the Government of South Africa, through the Department of Agriculture, Forestry & Fisheries.
