News and events

Communication is the thread that connects the various stakeholders within this Network. This department aims to inform and build bridges: between countries, institutions, knowledge and experiences. By publicising our activities, publications and events, we amplify our collective impact and raise the profile of the collaborative work that drives the Network within the Latin American forestry sector.

At the same time, we share content, work and events produced by other organisations and institutions, with the aim of enriching the Network’s communication platform and promoting access to relevant and up-to-date information on forestry issues in the region.
