If you only provide the organization name, provide the address details for your organization; if you provide the department/unit name, provide the address details for the department/unit.

Select at least 1 and up to 15 terms from the Topic field to best describe your expertise. These are English terms (mostly related to forests and forestry) selected from the FAO AGROVOC Thesaurus. You may also add up to 5 other keywords terms (English) of your own choosing. These can be from the AGROVOC Thesaurus, or other controlled lists of keywords (e.g. General Multilingual Environmental Thesaurus - GEMET, National Agricultural Library Thesaurus), or of your own choosing. The terms that appear as you type are terms that have been used by other experts who have already submitted their information. In order to group experts with similar expertise, please look through the terms listed in the Topic list and also consider the terms already used by other experts in the keywords.

Note on the use of collected data: the collected data will be made freely available within the Expert Directory on the European Forest Institute web-pages. The data will be located on a server in the EFI Headquarters, Joensuu, Finland.

Expertise information

Topics - choose a minimum of 1 and a maximum 15 topics to describe your expertise:
AGROVOC Thesaurus

The FAO AGROVOC Thesaurus is the source of the topic keywords. About 60 English terms for broad concepts mostly related to forests and the forest-based sector have been selected from the AGROVOC thesaurus. Please have a look through the list of keywords and choose at least one and up to 15 terms from the list. The context (broader terms, narrower terms, related terms, synonyms) and equivalents in other languages can be found on the AGROVOC web-page.

Free keywords, provide additional keywords to describe your expertise - maximum 5 keywords/phrases:

Experts can also provide keywords of their own choosing. You are free to add up to 5 terms of your own choice, or terms from a controlled list e.g. other terms in the AGROVOC Thesaurus, GEMET, National Agricultural Library, or another controlled list of terms. The terms that appear as you type are partial matches with the terms you have typed and have been used by other experts. You are free to add your own new terms, but please check the terms already listed. If you add you own keyword terms, please check the AGROVOC terms listed to see if there are appropriate related or broader terms that you could also select. Please provide separate concepts as separate terms e.g. "forest ecology and management" should be selected separately as "forest ecology" and "forest management" from the AGROVOC terms in the topic (see item above); FLEGT & REDD should be added as separate terms.
