Barents Forest Forum 2019

The Barents region in a biobased future Welcome to a conference on the multiple-functions the forest plays in a future bioeconomy. Over the course of three days, participants from industry, forest stakeholders, policy, research and development, and education will discuss the forest in a biobased future in Northern Europe, with a particular focus on the Barents region.

The conference commences with a workshop focused on labor supply, equal opportunities and education. The conference continues with high-level practice-oriented presentations with focus on examples from Finland, Norway, Russia and Sweden. There will be opportunities for networking and practical demonstrations in forest-related excursions. The conference is open to all.
