European forests, especially in Atlantic regions, face growing threats from climate change and wildfires. The LIFE SILFORE project promotes silvopastoral systems—combining livestock grazing with forest areas—to boost forest resilience and biodiversity. Through eleven pilot sites in Galicia, the project demonstrates how silvopasto-ralism improves land management. It aims to develop scalable, sustainable models for climate adaptation and enhanced forest resilience.
