We’re very happy to announce that a new Karelia CBC project, Access2Forest, has now officially started! The project kick-off event was held by lead partner Business Joensuu in the Science Park of Joensuu on January 20th, 2020. Present in the event were representatives of all project partners; Business Joensuu, Finnish Forest Centre, Forest Holding Company Karellesprom, Riveria Vocational College, Arbonaut Ltd and Lesnoe Bureau Partner LLC.

During the meeting, in addition to the practical issues related to starting a new Karelia CBC project, also the next steps for the implementation of the project were discussed. Work with the demo programme has already started by the collaborative efforts of Arbonaut, Karellesprom and Lesnoe Bureau Partner, and in the following weeks the upcoming trainings of Finnish Forest Centre and Riveria will be further planned. So - more news to follow in the next few months!
