SUMMARY:2025 CIF-IFC National Conference & 117th Annual General Meeting
DESCRIPTION:This multi-day Conference\, Finding Opportunity in Complexity\, will explore the interconnected dimensions of climate change\, forest fire management\, biodiversity conservation\, Indigenous forest stewardship\, socio-economic considerations\, and the evolving forest industry. \n\n\n\nThe Conference will also include many activities where you can experience beautiful Binesii-wiikwedong (Thunder Bay)\, on the shore of Anishinaabewi-gichigami (Lake Superior) and the surrounding area. \n\n\n\nForests are complex systems that support a wide range of interconnected biotic and abiotic elements\, including human settlements. Managing forests sustainably to meet the diversity of human values and interests under a rapidly changing climate and growing human population is a challenge.  \n\n\n\nThe boreal forests of the “Lakehead”\, the traditional territory of Fort William First Nation\, have provided a cultural and spiritual foundation for Indigenous Peoples for generations\, along with a diverse suite of ecosystem services. Over time the area’s forests have also become a source of economic prosperity\, making the region a hub of forest management\, scientific inquiry\, and policy development. This provides the ideal setting for exploring the relationships between forests and the communities\, economies\, and ecosystems they support.  Join us as we transform the challenges of complexity into opportunities by considering the history of forest management\, celebrating the contributions and diverse perspectives of our peers\, and looking toward resilient and healthy future forests. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nREgister Here
