World Forest Institute

We educate the public about the world's forests and their importance to all life, in order to promote a balanced and sustainable future. The World Forest Institute was established in 1989 as the information services division of the World Forestry Center, a nonprofit organization located in Portland, Oregon, USA. The primary program of WFI is the International Fellowship Program. WFI also offers original publications, and forestry conferences. Through WFI, Fellows and clients expand their access to information on international markets, new products, evolving technologies, wood species and characteristics, and emerging trends in forestry.
