The Commonwealth Forestry Conference is an international forum for foresters, and all those with an interest in the forestry sector to exchange knowledge and experience. It is organized by the Standing Committee on Commonwealth Forestry and occurs every 4 – 5 years. The Conference relates to general aspects of forest management and governance and has a focus on the changing priorities of the forestry sector.
A hundred years ago, the Conference was the precursor of many global meetings on forestry, aiming to bring awareness of the forest resource around the globe, and introduce strategies for its use and long-term sustainability. Today, the Conference keeps a reputation of a global forestry event that brings together a wide representation of forest practitioners and natural resources managers, scholars, decision-makers, and change influencers.
We expect this Conference to engage members of the Commonwealth as well as the general world forest community, regardless of their professional affiliation – working for governments, the industry or other civil and environmental organizations – as integrating and coordinating national policies for natural resources management takes collective action across the institutions and sectors.
Please join us for the Twentieth Commonwealth Forestry Conference in August, 2021 and share your view on the joint future of forests and people.
