NCFCNFR Workshops

As part of our core purpose to help rural people conduct and use research to make informed decisions about forest resources, the National Community Forestry Center, Northern Forest Region offers three workshops designed to increase the capacity of communities.

What Is Participatory Research, and Why Does It Matter?

Giving the Forest a Voice in Community Planning: Creating Local Indicators of Forest Health

Defining a Researchable Question: What Do You Really Need to Know?

We are currently seeking local, sub-regional, or regional co-sponsors to help host and recruit participants for the three workshops facilitated by the Center. NCFCNFR covers all costs for food, site, and workshop materials. These workshops will only be available free of charge until December, 2003.
