The International Scientific Conference “Forestry science for sustainable development FORS2D – Perspectives of forestry and related sectors as drivers of sustainable development in the post-Covid era – FORS2D” in Banja Luka is held on the occasion of important Jubilee (30 years) of the Faculty of Forestry, University of Banja Luka, and 30 years of PFE “Šume Republike Srpske” a.d. Sokolac, in cooperation with FAO (United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization). Considering global changes that we are facing, the importance of forests cannot be underestimated. We depend on forests for our survival, from the air we breathe to the wood we use, but without education and scientific research we cannot promise sustainable development or sustainable forestry. Besides basic functions of forests needed for humans, forests also offer climate change mitigation, watershed protection, prevent soil erosion and torrential floods that we are frequently facing in recent decades. Unfortunately, despite our dependence on forests, we are still allowing them to disappear.
