100 Years of IUFRO

IUFRO was established on 17 August 1892 in Eberswalde, Germany with only three members: the Association of German Forest Experiment Stations and the experiment stations of Austria and Switzerland. 

From that time onwards IUFRO has grown constantly to become a worldwide organization now representing more than 15,000 scientists in over 600 Member Organizations in 126 different countries. More than 700 researchers, representing a broad range of scientific backgrounds and disciplines serve as Coordinators of IUFRO Divisions, Research Groups, Working Parties or Task Forces.
