Forest Knowledge Boxes
Throughout 2024, thanks to a project funded by FSC strategic funds, the FSC Adria-Balkan team – in collaboration with the Croatian association Modelna šuma Istra (Istria Model Forest) – has developed a series of training modules to present scientific forestry concepts in a more accessible and engaging way.
The Forest Knowledge Boxes are designed to enrich the school curriculum for primary and secondary students in Croatia (ages 12 to 17). They help teachers create engaging, interactive lessons while allowing students to explore and understand the importance of forests, their functions, and their services through individual and group activities.

The Forest Knowledge Boxes provide students with the opportunity to deepen their understanding of forest ecosystems through hands-on activities and research, fostering awareness of their significance and conservation for future generations.
