Call for Proposals – 2026 Canadian Urban Forest Conference (Québec City, October 13–16, 2026)

by Adrina Bardekjian

Dear IUFRO Division 6 Members, It is my pleasure to share that I am serving as Co-Chair for the 2026 Canadian Urban Forest Conference (CUFC 2026), which will be held in Québec City, Québec, Canada, from October 13 to 16, 2026. This 16th edition of the conference will focus on the critical role of urban forests in sustainable urban development and community resilience. We are pleased to announce that the Call for Proposals is now open (see attached). Full details and submission guidelines are available on the CUFC website: CUFC 2026 - Home - Tree Canada<https://treecanada.ca/research-engagement/canadian-urban-forest-conference/…> We encourage contributions from all areas of expertise: technical practice, research, policy, and governance. If your work touches on any aspect of urban forestry, we invite you to submit a presentation proposal. Submission Deadline: February 28, 2026 Please note that the conference hosts are not in a position to offer assistance with visa applications or to issue any formal visa-support letters. We encourage prospective participants to review Canadian entry requirements early and ensure they make the necessary arrangements independently. We look forward to receiving your proposals and hope to welcome many of you in Québec City in 2026. Best, Adrina [Tree Canada logo] Dr. Adrina C.

Happening tomorrow - Webinar: Harnessing the Future: AI Tools for the Modern Forester

by Brigitte Burger

Webinar: Harnessing the Future: AI Tools for the Modern Forester[cid:image003.jpg@01DC5D5A.5BE6E290] 25 November 2025, 1:00-3:00 pm (UTC+0) The global forest sector is undergoing a rapid digital transformation, driven by unprecedented volumes of data from remote sensing technologies (satellites, drones, LiDAR) and the urgent need for precise management to combat climate change, biodiversity loss, and illegal deforestation. IUFRO Research Group 6.09 on Forest Education recognizes that traditional forestry curricula often lag behind these technological shifts. A recent global assessment highlighted the critical gap in preparing bachelor-level students to effectively utilize digital tools, predictive analytics, and large datasets, which are now standard requirements in both public and private forest management bodies. This dedicated webinar aims to bridge this educational gap. By introducing undergraduate students to the core concepts and practical applications of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML), IUFRO RG 6.09 seeks to empower the next generation of forest professionals to transition from manual, field-based inventory methods to high-precision, data-driven sustainable forest management (SFM). This initiative directly supports the mandate to promote innovative teaching and update forest-related curricula globally.
