—————–

Women in Forest Management (WIFM) is an organization that exists to empower and connect women and those that support them. Recent workforce shortages demonstrate the need to prioritize making our industry a more supportive and inclusive place where women’s unique viewpoints are appreciated and welcomed. Comprising less than 20% of the workforce, women face many cultural, behavioral, and institutional challenges in forestry. We seek to be inclusive of women, and those that support them, that are working in all aspects of forest management as well as all forest management objectives.
