Recording of the first ForestTalks Seminar
The first webinar of our “Forest Talks” webinar series: Towards a Common European Forest Monitoring System” was held on April 30th 2024.
This webinar was hosted by the Horizon Europe projects ForestNavigator, ForestPaths, and PathFinder, to discuss the co-creation of monitoring and model-based pathways for EU forests supporting climate, biodiversity, and bioeconomy goals.
During the webinar, panellists discussed how results from Horizon Europe research projects could contribute to the development of a future forest monitoring system and how to use its information for co-designing forest-based policy pathways to achieve climate and biodiversity goals.
