The Ibero-American Model Forest Network (RIABM) aims to be a regional benchmark for the sustainable management of forest-based landscapes. It promotes cooperation among model forests, institutions and member countries based on knowledge exchange and innovative experiences and contributes to public policies related to the sustainable management of natural resources. It is the first voluntary regional organization to be created that brings together 14 countries and 28 model forests in Central and South America, the Caribbean and Spain to share knowledge and experiences. The RIABM promotes the sustainable management of forest-based landscapes and connects model forests of member countries.
