Nordic-Baltic Centre of Advanced Research on Forestry Serving Urbanised Societies II (2011-2015)
Coordinator: Professor Anders Busse Nielsen, Institute of Geosciences and Natural Resource Management, University of Copenhagen, Denmark, ign.ku.dk
Financing: 400.000 DKK/year for 5 years
This CAR continues its successful work from the previous funding period, being a catalyst for research in the fields of urban forestry and forestry at large. In the first period, several emerging research topics were identified. These have been used to select four prioritised research themes in the new CAR: Forest governance (how decisions about forests are made and who is involved); Nature and human health relations; Forest, recreation and tourism; and Quality urban forest management.
