##### The Natural Forest Academy The Academy was founded to give forests and their living inhabitants a voice. Our goal is to initiate a re-think about the way we treat forests in Central Europe. Through our research, we want to raise questions and provide answers around the ecological, climatic and social importance of natural forests and the impact that close-to-nature forest management has on, for example, climate and species protection.
