Once a year, NordGen Forest organizes a conference that brings together forest people in the Nordic countries. The purpose is to increase the exchange of knowledge among the participants, be a meeting place for actors in the forestry industry and provide inspiration for the ongoing work.

Through presentations, discussions and field trips, the conferences contribute to increase the general level of competence in forest regeneration, forest plants, seeds and genetic resources. The conferences are organized in the various Nordic countries in close cooperation with the national representatives who are members of NordGen Forest Regeneration Council.

The program for the annual upcoming forest conference is published in our calendar. The NordGen Forest Conference 2024 “Forest regeneration in the north – the past, the present and the future” will be held in Rovaniemi, Finland, 18-19 September.
