FoRISK Intelligence Hub

FoRISK is thrilled to announce the launch of the FoRISK Intelligence Hub, a free and open-access digital library designed to support forest risk management across pan-Europe.

The Intelligence Hub is a key milestone in FoRISK’s mission to strengthen forest resilience through knowledge exchange, expert collaboration, and practical guidance. It offers a curated and expanding collection of resources focused on three core disturbance areas:

  • Windstorms
  • Wildfires
  • Biotic Agents

Whether you’re a forest manager, policymaker, researcher, or student, the Hub provides practical insights to help you prepare for, respond to, or better understand forest disturbances and risks. It is designed to be intuitive, accessible, and continuously updated with contributions from FoRISK’s pan-European network.

The tool is powered by the EU-Farmbook, a Horizon Europe project that has built an online platform to collect and share agricultural and forestry knowledge at regional, national, and European levels.

What You’ll Find in the Hub

The Hub currently features a growing and evolving collection of resources related to forest risk and resilience. These include:

  • Guidelines and best practices
  • Technical and scientific materials
  • Policy-oriented documents
  • Case studies and practical tools

As the library continues to expand, new content will be added regularly. All resources are searchable and categorized, with filters that allow users to explore by:

  • Focal area (Windstorms, Wildfires, Biotic Agents)
  • Country
  • Region
  • Subject
  • Audience

This flexible structure ensures that users can easily find relevant information tailored to their needs, even as the Hub grows over time.

Why It Matters

Pan-Europe’s forests are increasingly vulnerable to natural disturbances driven by climate change and other stressors. The Intelligence Hub empowers stakeholders with the knowledge they need to act swiftly and effectively, whether in crisis response or long-term planning.

The launch of the Intelligence Hub marks a new phase in FoRISK’s journey.
