Season 3 of Branching Out: The Forest Podcast, hosted by Gerda Wolfrum from IUFRO HQ, explores how IUFRO scientists work across disciplines to address emerging issues through Task Forces. In the second episode we discuss why innovation matters in the forest sector, the different forms it takes, and how science underpins scaling up of innovation. Hear from Task Force co-leads Lyndall Bull, an Australian forester specializing in innovation and the bioeconomy, and Rajat Panwar, a professor of responsible and sustainable business at Oregon State University, along with co-host Leila Rossa Mouawad from the American University of Beirut and Deputy Coordinator of IUFRO’s Communication Working Party.Tune in to Branching Out: the forest podcast!
