The IUFRO World Congress 2024 is approaching. Mistra Digital Forest is involved in several parts of the conference – here we list them.
The IUFRO World Congress will be held from June 23 to June 29, 2024, in Stockholm. The IUFRO World Congress is a significant event in forestry, bringing together experts and professionals from around the world. It is a great honor for Sweden to host this prestigious congress and showcase our commitment to sustainable forestry and innovation.
Here you can see which parts Mistra Digital Forest is engaged in and elements related to the program’s area. Already during lunch on the first day, you can take part in results from Mistra Digital Forest, and the features will continue throughout the week, both at Stockholmsmässan and in the Sörmland forests.
