About:
Join us for the 2025 Forest Carbon Summit, a 2-day event designed to equip forest carbon practitioners, forest managers and a diverse range of stakeholders with the knowledge and tools needed to successfully navigate the forest carbon landscape. The event aims to provide attendees with an improved understanding of the demand for forest carbon, ethics in the carbon market, and the technical and administrative requirements of forest carbon projects.

Attendees will have access to a broad program, delving into critical themes such as the intersection of carbon and natural capital markets, complexities in existing and emerging forest carbon accounting methods, and opportunities in off-market carbon accounting. The program sessions will also explore essential topics like forest carbon and investment; ethics & risk; agroforestry, agriculture and environmental plantings; local and international best practice, and; future legislation and reporting requirements. Breakout session opportunities include ‘Carbon 101’ for newcomers, and ‘Plantation project development and the role of the RFP’, essential for Registered Forestry Professionals.

Don’t miss this chance to enhance your understanding and drive integrity in forest carbon practices.
