The annual conference of the European Fores- try Institute (EFI) took place on 6 and 7 October. Originally, this prestigious event was to take place in Prague in cooperation with our Faculty. Unfortunately, due to the pandemic, it took place online. The first day was devoted to the discussion of EFI’s annual reports and was opened, among others, by speeches from the CZU Rector, prof. Petr Sklenička and the FFWS Dean prof. Róbert Marušák. The following day, a professional seminar was held, where doc. Peter Surový attended as the lecturer. Given that Prague is a very attractive place for such events, we will have the opportunity to participate in the organization of the conference in 2025, which, hopefully, will not be affected by the Covid pandemic.
