The Associate and Affiliate Members of EFI meet on annual basis at the Annual Conferences. The Associate Members have a right of vote at the Conference and they thus approve matters such as audited financial materials and work plans, and make decisions on the future plans and activities of EFI.
We want to highlight our member organisations, as our members are the heart and soul of EFI. In our blog series, our members can tell more about themselves.
We regularly send you information on EFI activities and issues related to European forests. We offer grants for scientific visits. We represent the European forest science community on the global and European stages, giving our member organisations a voice at the highest level.
