Information Sessions
For the Tropical Forest Landscapes Certificate Program

The Tropical Forest Landscapes program provides the needed in-depth knowledge, to analyze, structure and value nature projects from different perspectives. Participants of the course gain in-depth and hands-on knowledge about the history, biology, structure, social factors and finance of tropical landscape projects. You get to know people from different backgrounds and world regions, which also gives you enriching insights about the variety of nature restoration projects. I can highly recommend the program.”
