Who Are We
IFSA is a globally organised and locally operating students organisation. We connect forestry students to their peers and forest-related organisations and policy platforms. Essentially we’re in the business of connecting, empowering, and educating the next generation of leaders.
Our Vision
IFSA’s vision of “a world that appreciates forests” describes the dream of having all the people and societies on the earth recognize the full worth of forests and fully understand forests, grasping their implications and being grateful for their multi-fold contributions to humanity.
Our Mission
Our mission is to enrich our members’ education through international events, networking and intercultural exchange.
