New Era for Forests Reception

📅 Tuesday, September 23, 2025 | 6:00 – 8:00 PM EDT
📍 The Nature Hub - GH on the Park, 54 W 40th St, 10th Floor, New York, NY 10018

We warmly invite you to join the Doris Duke Foundation and the forest-climate community to spotlight the outcomes from the recent 9^th American Forest Congress and the critical role of U.S. forests in addressing our most pressing challenges.

U.S. forests face many threats today: both ecological and political. But the potential of forests to help address important societal needs--from climate action and employment to health and housing--unlocks new opportunities for progress.

This reception will bring together leaders, innovators, and allies and feature speakers from American Forests, Climate Advisers, the Doris Duke Foundation, and other leading organizations creating a new era of climate-resilient forests.
