Digital End Conference, Zoom
What are the challenges and opportunities of forest-related service development in the Kvarken region? What can be learnt from the Prosperous Forest project for the future? These issues will be explored and discussed during the projects end conference on the 19th and 20th October.
A digital conference, with presentations, panel discussion etc, will take place on the mornings of the two days. In the afternoon of the 19th, a physical excursion will be offered in both the Umeå and Seinäjoki region. The conference language will be English, but with the opportunity to ask questions in both Swedish and Finnish. The excursion will be carried out in the local language. More details and information about the conference and excursion will be available soon.
This end conference is organized by the Botnia Atlantica funded project Rikare skog.
