The independent forestry think-tank

benvenuto bienvenue bienvenido boa vinda croeso welcome welkom willkommen

Forestry Horizons is an independent forestry think-tank and a project of the Sylva Foundation. We aim to advance effective sustainable forest management in Europe through research and communication. We undertake independent strategic research and support applied research.

This dedicated website allows us to make available research and technical data for the forestry sector.

We are a member of the Global Forest Information Service, through which our publications are linked to the worldwide forestry community.

Headline activities

We have completed a contract report on Prospects for the market supply of wood and other forest products from areas with fragmented forest ownership structures for the Conféderation Européenne des Propriétaires Forestiers and ConFor.
