Embrapa has just released its first online training in English, entitled "Forest Management, species by species". With free access via the e-Campo platform, the English-language version of the course is intended to provide training for technicians, students, and legislators, broadening the reach of this topic among international audiences. According to Evaldo Muñoz Braz, a researcher at Embrapa Forestry and instructor of the course, "many countries manage natural forests and are interested in new management protocols to ensure the economic, social and environmental sustainability of their forests."

The course is structured into four modules totaling 8 hours: - Forest Management Legislation (concepts and legislation); - Misinterpretations; - Growth; and - Procedures and Variables for Management by Species. All the modules include video classes, a workbook, and an evaluation of the content learned. Participants who score an average of 70% or more earn a certificate, which is issued through the platform.

This course, developed by gender experts, compiles research, case studies and practical recommendations from leading institutions engaged in forest landscape restoration. In this self-paced online course, you will learn the fundamentals of gender and social inclusion in forest landscapes restoration (FLR). The course focuses on gender inequalities, gender-differentiated impacts and opportunities to address inequalities for more equitable and sustainable FLR, to build the abilities and understanding of diverse stakeholders on the gender and FLR nexus.
