Protect the Forest and Kursgården Lindsberg, outside Falun, invite you to a weekend course on the various regulations that govern forestry. The course is aimed at forest groups in the country that are active in the work of protecting forests with high conservation values. The course aims to give the participants a good picture of the directives, laws and regulations that regulate how forestry should be conducted and what the responsibility for it looks like.

The course will give practical advice on what to think about in contacts with authorities and courts, and there will be a mix of theory and group discussions based on real and fictional cases.
It is important that you as a participant in the course either already have some experience in the subject or are very eager to learn how to do it. The purpose of the course is for more people to be able to act actively in these issues.
