Future Forests

Making Social Change Together

Who are we?

Future Forests is for the public, for our youth, for politicians and municipal, county and state leaders, land managers, and international thinkers. It is for community engagers, practitioners, and innovators; and for our most innovative next-generation leaders, entrepreneurs and corporations.

We are a growing interdisciplinary coalition of cultural leaders, artists, social anthropologists, scientists, economists, next-generation corporate leaders and land managers, innovators and philanthropists with a shared vision.

From a rigorous melding of art, the humanities and science, we have come together as an inspired population to learn and share ideas. We will take our learning and apply it to change, and to connecting with more of you. This is creativity directed at economic and social transformation processes in science, humanities, economy, ecology and art. Future Forests is inspiring, building capacities and connections, and creating change.
