Abstract
The PROFOREST Centre at the Forest Research Institute (FRI) in Warsaw, Poland, is being made for promoting integration among forest researchers from CEEC and EU countries in protection of forest resources in Central Europe. We have 70 years of experience and knowledge on research problems of forest protection against pathogens, insects, wildfires, emissions, wildlife, of soil and water protection, species biodiversity; gene resource protection, and nature conservation. The PROFOREST Centre will facilitate exchanging research methods, and preparing joint research projects at European level, removing mental and technical barriers and tightening co-operation throughout CEEC. It will stimulate development of forest science in our part of Europe and enable foresters to manage better our forests and preserve them for future generations.
