We are delighted to announce at the 2024 International Conference of the Association of European Operational Research Societies (EURO), Prof. Dr. Lidija Zadnik Stirn received the EURO Distinguished Service Award (EDSA) for lifetime achievement in the European operations research community and profession. The EURO Distinguished Service Award (EDSA) is the highest recognition in EURO of distinguished service to the European operational research community and to the profession of operational research. We are also pleased to say that, as only one EDSA award is given each year, this is a very special occasion.
Prof. Zadnik Stirn has been an honorable member of IUFRO since 1986. She has held several coordinator and deputy positions, including D4 deputy coordinator and WG 4.05 coordinator. Her work focuses on developing optimization models for forest management, environmental decision models, assessment of forest ecosystem services and managerial economics. She has published more than 630 works, 45 of which are scientific articles!
We would like to send our heartfelt congratulations to Prof. Zadnik Stirn on receiving this well-deserved award!
