Nov 17, 2021 - Nov 18, 2021

The forest and woodlands of southern Africa are dominated by human settlements and therefore  exposed to different levels of use for provision of different services including energy, construction materials, and a diversity of non-timber forest products.  The countries in the region are at different levels of forestry research and are endowed with different capacities to conduct research at both National and Higher Education Institutional levels.  On the other hand, the vegetation type in the region is similar in a number of countries including the Miombo, Savanna woodlands, Mangroves forests, among others. Fortunately, the SADC Forestry Strategy has outlined many common challenges, which, if well-coordinated, would benefit from the critical mass of scientists in the region. 

This realisation has made CCARDESA to host a Regional Forestry Webinar. This webinar is targeted at  policy makers, researchers, academics and development agents. The purpose of the webinar is to ;

  1. Share information on the status of forest resource and management in the Region
  2. Share information on state of forestry research in the region
  3. Identify areas of synergy and potential regional focus areas
  4. Identify potential lead institutions for different research focus areas; and
  5. Develop a mechanism to integrate forestry research coordination into the CCARDESA programmes implementation model.
