Resources

Improved Forest Management (IFM) is a proven Nature-Based Solution (NBS) and approach that reduces wildfire risks, protects old-growth forests, promotes regrowth, and allows trees to mature fully. Beyond environmental benefits, IFM generates carbon credits that support Indigenous leadership, create jobs, and strengthen community well-being.

At First 30×30 Canada, we highlight how these solutions protect the land, empower communities, and ensure a resilient future.
