Structure

EFI's Headquarters is in Joensuu, Finland and our Policy Support office is located in Barcelona, Spain. We have five Regional Offices and one Project Centre.

Regional Offices

The Regional Offices are integral parts of EFI, and are governed by Terms of Reference and EFI management practices. They address forest research and networking issues at a regional level following the EFI Strategy.

Regional Office activities bring visibility to regional forest issues by putting them into a European context. Regional Offices also strengthen the EFI network by opening new avenues for funding.

Project Centres

EFI Project Centres carry out research within the scope of EFI's research strategy and under the EFI name and scientific umbrella. They consist of EFI members and other relevant partners. Project Centres are financed independently of EFI and have a limited duration.

Currently MOUNTFOR is the only operational EFI Project Centre.
