In his address, <strong>Rojas expressed his gratitude for the support and confidence placed in him, highlighting the need to broaden the institution\u2019s traditional focus.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cCIHEAM has had a strong presence in the agri-food sector, but a much <strong>more limited one in the forestry field.<\/strong> However, in recent years it has reached a key dual conviction: on the one hand, <strong>that forestry is a strategic element of the rural world, <\/strong>especially in more disadvantaged areas such as mountain regions; that it represents the most important source of biomaterials; <strong>and that, in addition, agri-livestock and forestry uses are both necessary and complementary, particularly in the prevention of natural hazards such as wildfires or floods exacerbated by climate change<\/strong>, as evidenced by Mediterranean systems\u201d, highlighted the ITACA researcher.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For all these reasons, he announced that during his term, the Advisory Board <strong>will promote an agenda aimed at strengthening the integration of agricultural and forestry policies, fostering resilience to climate change<\/strong>, and promoting sustainable rural development models adapted to Mediterranean realities, as well as supporting population retention and decent livelihoods in rural areas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n&nbsp;\n<br><br>\n<hr>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em><sub><code>Noticia elaborada por ITACA
