Thank you to this year’s Platinum Sponsor:
The Sustainable Forestry Initiative (SFI) is a sustainability leader through their work in standards, conservation, community and education. As an independent, non-profit organization, SFI collaborates with a diverse network to help address local and global sustainability challenges. SFI works with the forest sector, brand owners, conservation groups, resource professionals, landowners, educators, local communities, Indigenous Peoples, governments and universities.

As part of their conservation work, SFI is moving from concept to practice with their Climate Smart Forestry Initiative to advance the interpretation and implementation of Climate Smart Forestry (a major contributing theme to this year’s IBFRA conference) across the SFI footprint. The SFI CSF Initiative focuses on both enhancing the carbon sink and reducing sources of emissions from the forest sector while achieving co-benefits for biodiversity and wildfire risk reduction.
And to this year’s Bronze Sponsor:
Canadian Science Publishing (CSP) is Canada’s independent, not-for-profit leader in mobilizing science-based knowledge, making it easy to discover, use, and share.
