FOREST SUMMIT

The inaugural Forest Summit: Global Action and Armenia facilitated open and transparent discussion of policy decisions on Armenia’s forests with the aim of catalyzing improvements in forest conservation and restoration internationally. Insights and learnings were shared from some of the world’s leading climatologists, forestry professionals, and political leaders. In addition to a wide variety of speaker sessions, attendees participated in field visits to forestry sites in Armenia, took part in social/networking events on the sidelines of the Conference, and visited some of Armenia’s most prominent tourist sites
