Organized and coordinated by the Brazilian Forest Service (SFB) and  Brazilian Agricultural Research Corporation (EMBRAPA), the event will span 8 days and host a multitude of national and international forestry experts. Approximately three thousand participants are expected at the event, which will discuss various aspects related to forest research. 

The Congress will offer the opportunity to exchange experiences and knowledge on technological innovations, as well as to stay up to date on the latest research findings and trends for the future of forestry and forest research in all areas of the world.
