Outreach and Education Team
Promoting Awareness and Understanding
- Our goal is to provide education and outreach related to forest health, with a particular focus on the genetics of tree resistance to invasive pathogens and insects
- We will promote the research of the biological and social teams, as well as other researchers in the field, and synthesize their findings for a wide variety of audiences, from the general public to industry professionals
- Our projects will include workshops, advisory activities, participatory science projects and collaborations related to forest health
