  1. To develop clear perspectives on the links of social forestry and climate change;
  2. To renew commitments and support for community-based forest management (CBFM) programs;
  3. To increase the understanding of stakeholders on climate change action planning and the Philippine NDC process;
  4. To share good practice on building resilience and mitigating climate change within community managed/ social forestry areas; and
  5. To develop recommendations and capacity needs on integrating social forestry in NDC planning and implementation.
