Home Legislative Action Page Sustainable Forestry Member Services ... Links Sustainable Forestry Since the late 1980s, questions about the sustainable management of the world's forests have led to the development of a number of forest certification systems. The goal of forest certification systems is to develop standards that ensure that forests are being managed with an eye toward protecting all the values that forests provide to society. Concerns such as sustainable harvest rates, the protection of water quality, and the continuation of appropriate levels of biodiversity, among others, are all factors in forest certification systems.

High-school students aged 16-18 can learn about environmentally sound forest management techniques and career options. A balance of work, field tours and presentations helps participants understand how the government and forest industry face the complex challenges of forest resource management. A crew may be located anywhere in Alberta and work on various projects from tree planting and trail building, to fire-hazard reduction. Crewmembers receive training in equipment use and maintenance including chainsaws. They participate in field tours and presentations while learning directly from practicing foresters. Crewmembers are paid $30 per day (Monday through Friday), regardless of whether on a work or educational day. Meals, transportation and tent accommodation are provided free-of-charge. Students seeking credit for their JFR experience are encouraged to make arrangements with their schools prior to the program.

Our Mission Polyproject PRIMALP — Sustainable Primary Production in the Alpine Region The quickly changing ecological, economic, social, and political environments confront society and science with new challenges to solve existing and newly emerging conflicts which impede both a sustainable land use, and sustainable agriculture and forestry in the Alpine region. A broad interdisciplinary co-operation is required to develop improved technical, organizational and political concepts and solutions for sustainable future primary production. These principles are pursued within the scope of the Polyproject 'PRIMALP — Sustainable Primary Production in the Alpine Region'. The project has two main objectives: Identification and development of sustainable agricultural and forestry production systems for the Alpine region ('best practices' projects); Development of tools and models for the analysis and evaluation of infrastructure requirements and policy decision-making ('best policies' projects). Specific research topics are dealt with as individual projects . The results of the individual projects are integrated into a ' Core Project '. Within the scope of the Core Project, an ecological-economic model is built. It serves as a tool for the evaluation of alternative production systems and as a means for the development and communication of consistent concepts for a resource-efficient and sustainable agriculture and forestry in mountain regions.
