Department of Forests (Cyprus) joins EUSTAFOR, as Statskog becomes a full member

At the start of 2026, EUSTAFOR received an application from the Department of Forests (Cyprus) to join as a full member, alongside a request from Statskog (Norway) to upgrade from associate to full membership. Both applications were ratified during the Executive Committee meeting held on 5–6 February in Tallinn, Estonia.

We are therefore delighted to announce that at the upcoming General Assembly on 15 April 2026 in Brussels, EUSTAFOR will officially welcome two new voting members.

If you want to learn more about the Department of Forests, we encourage you to visit their website.
