The Centre for Development Innovation at the Wageningen University is organizing the ‘Governance for forests, nature & people: managing multistakeholder learning in sector programmes and policy processes’ from 2 September 2013 to 13 September 2013 in the Netherlands.
This course challenges forest and nature management professionals to adopt a broader perspective, to look beyond the forest boundaries, taking into account cross-sectorial concerns and working in multidisciplinary teams. In this course we focus on new ways of policy development, enforcement of forest laws, and implementation of international agreements ‘on the ground’.
This course is organised in cooperation with CIFOR, which has a vast experience in forest and society related research. It offers experienced professionals a stimulating learning environment through a variety of hands-on learning methods. Participants will be updated on state-of-the-art forest-related research and will be challenged to share their own work and to reflect on actual practices.
The Netherlands Fellowship Programmes (NFP) is offering financial support for this short course to cover your costs of living, the costs of tuition fees, visas, travel, insurance and thesis research, as specified in the NFP Rules and Regulations for fellowship holders.
