Canada’s Model Forests conduct research, develop tools and provide educational
opportunities at the local and regional level, as well as make significant
efforts to go beyond their boundaries to reach out to people and organizations
at the provincial level. However, Model Forests also realize that they have
much to contribute and to learn about sustainable forest management within a
national context. By working together as a network, Canada’s Model Forests have
established several special initiatives to address topics that are relevant to
all – regardless of forest region or province.
Much like individual Model Forests, these national initiatives conduct research,
develop educational material and tools, and host workshops on a variety of
topics. Putting knowledge into practice is an underlying objective of each
national initiative. Broad participation ensures that the knowledge and tools
developed by each initiative will be adopted by individual Model Forests and by
other partner organizations.
The Canadian Model Forest Network currently sponsors four national initiatives.
