In 2020, a group of researchers carried out analysis to examine the importance of Indigenous Peoples’ lands for preserving Intact Forest Landscapes.(Fa et al.2020)They used geospatial data on th...
During the last twenty years (2000-2020) the intact forest landscapes extent within African, Caribbean and Pacific countries, decreased by 16% (237275km2).
However the protection of IFLs increased in...
The Forest Landscape Integrity Index (FLII) is a composite index created to show the degree of forest integrity for 2019.
The authors identified three Forest Integrity categories:

An intact forest landscape (IFL) is a seamless mosaic of forest and naturally treeless ecosystems with no remotely detected signs of human activity and a minimum area of 500 km2. (Potapov et al.2017) ...
Mangroves provide both climate change mitigation and adaptation services. They provide benefits for coastal communities and they are among the most effective carbon-capture ecosystems. If they are deg...
''Intact Forest Landscapes (IFLs) are defined as those with an unfragmented area of at least 500 km2 and which are minimally influenced by human economic activity''.(Thies et al. 2011) IFLs are critic...
Number of maternal deaths during a given time period per 100 000 live births during the same time period. The lower the number of healthcare facilities with access to electricity the greater the poten...

Percentage of schools in Africa reporting to have no electricity. The lower the education facilities with access to electricity the greater the potential for decentralised renewable energies to improv...
The CO2 fixed by photosynthesis is one of the most important components of the carbon cycle. Forests play a key role in this process. They represent large and persistent carbon sinks. Tree carbon stoc...
This layer shows the percentage of people with access to any improved sanitation facility, including both piped systems (such as sewer or septic tanks) and non-piped improved options (like ventilated ...
