The project will support early-career forest researchers in Ukraine by improving their technical skills and research expertise. Quantitative methods in forestry are in focus.
Forest researchers in Ukraine, in the beginning of their careers, face multiple challenges. PhD students and junior researchers need both to improve their technical- and cooperation capacities.
The project will address the soft skills development among the key target audience, with focus on building horizontal networks, knowledge on successful fund raising, application for scholarships and academic publication. A series of workshops and online sessions will aid the young Ukrainian researchers to gain relevant technical capacity.
