It is with great satisfaction that Brazil is hosting the 25th edition of the IUFRO World Congress. This year’s
theme, "Forest Research and Cooperation for Sustainable Development," is very fitting now that the issues of
production, preservation, environmental services, and their influences on a global scale have moved beyond purely
technical debates in closed academic or business circles to become part of everyday life for urban as well as rural
dwellers. In this sense, holding an event like the IUFRO World Congress in a country like Brazil, which has its
forest DNA rooted in its large-scale diversity and the productive capacity of its planted forests, is very timely.
