What does Model Forest mean? An answer inside the Italian small dictionary “Forests and Society” |
|
Compagnia delle Foreste, the Italian company that managed the communication of our Network, recently released a book that includes also a contribution from the Model Forests Network.
“Forest and Society - Small Dictionary of Sustainable Forest Management” curated by Marco Marchetti and published by Compagnia delle Foreste, is a dense guide within the world of forest and landscape management intended both for those that work already in the sector and who want to approach the topic. Involving more than 80 authors among Italian forestry experts, the book includes a wide range of words and for each of them a contribution that goes beyond the literal meaning alone, giving context and deepness to the analysis.
Among the words there is also “Model Forest” written by Toni Ventre, Elisabetta Gravano (General Secretary and Vice-Secretary of the MMFN) and Stefano Berti (President of the Montagne Fiorentine Model Forest).
