Welcome to the Asia Forest Institute (AFI)

Since its establishment in 2016, AFI has been dedicated to advancing sustainable forest management and environmental stewardship across Asia and around the world. Founded on principles of collaboration and innovation, we work closely with government agencies, international bodies, and research institutions to tackle pressing environmental challenges such as climate change, biodiversity loss, and ecosystem degradation.

Our commitment to international cooperation and development cooperation projects positions AFI as a leader in promoting sustainable forestry practices, ecosystem restoration, and agroforestry, contributing to the well-being of our planet and communities. We are proud of our robust partnerships with organizations like the Korea International Cooperation Agency (KOICA) and the Asian Forest Cooperation Organization (AFoCO), which enhance our capabilities and extend our reach.

The Asia Forest Institute strives to be a leading institution in forestry and environmental research, enhancing the vitality of forests and ecosystems worldwide. We invite you to explore our initiatives and impact as we continue to expand our reach and deepen our research capabilities.

Thank you for your interest and support in our mission.
