On March 23 and 24, Université Laval will be opening its doors to forestry science enthusiasts at its annual fair. This year’s flagship event, organized as part of Forest Science Week (FSW), will highlight the captivating theme:“Forest, not fire“. These days promise to be rich in exchanges, discoveries and reflections on current and future forestry-related challenges.
Introducing Forestry Science Week
Forestry Science Week is a major forestry event in Quebec. Organized each year by Université Laval, it aims to bring together key players in the sector, from researchers and professionals to students and nature enthusiasts. This theme week provides a platform for exchanging and sharing knowledge, as well as a unique opportunity to discuss environmental and socio-economic issues related to forest resources.
Detailed program of activities
Forest Science Week kicks off on March 23 and 24 with a series of lectures by renowned experts in the field of forest management. These presentations will address various aspects of the issues, from prevention to the use and restoration of ecosystems. Discussion and exchange sessions will enable participants to delve deeper into the subjects that interest them and share their experiences.
At the same time, participants will be able to take part in hands-on workshops to discover the latest technological innovations and best practices in forestry.
Linking research and practice
One of the main aims of the show is to encourage dialogue between scientific research and practitioners in the field. By bringing together researchers, who develop new knowledge and technologies, and forest managers, who implement these solutions on a daily basis, the event aims to encourage innovation and the adoption of more efficient and sustainable practices.
