Sustainable forestry begins with strong education.
At SUSFOR, we bring these two roots together to grow lasting impact.
A commitment to innovation and sustainability
SUSFOR is dedicated to transforming forestry education in Tanzania and Zambia by combining innovative teaching methods with sustainable development goals.
Through international collaboration, digital tools, and real-world engagement, the project equips students, educators, and employers with the knowledge and skills needed to shape a climate-resilient forestry sector.
By investing in people and partnerships, SUSFOR fosters long-term change — where strong education leads to greener forests and stronger communities.
As our SUSFOR logo reflects, when African and Nordic forest elements come together, the adaptive brain in the background symbolises the mutual sharing of knowledge, skills, and sustainable values.
