Forest in Action



“Forests for the future” is co-financed by the welfare foundations Bodossakis, J.S. Latsis and A.G. Leventis, as well as from individual supporters of WWF Greece. The programme combined research and scientific analysis, policy and lobbying, environmental education and capacity building addressing local environmental groups. Each and every one of our forest programme’s actions has its own special value, since it is designed to produce important results and to contribute to the overall goal of safeguarding the protection of our forest treasures. Important scientific partners in this effort are the following:

• Aristotelian University of Thessaloniki: Forest Management and Remote Sensing Laboratory of the School of Forestry and Natural Environment.
• Aristotelian University of Thessaloniki: Laboratory of Pasture Ecology of the School of Forestry and Natural Environment.
• National Agricultural Research Institute (NAGREF): Institute of Mediterranean Forest Ecosystems
• Capodistrian University of Athens: Ecology Department of the School of Biology.
• University of Patras: Animal Biology Department of the School of Biology.
