Become a NFW-BC Coalition Volunteer

The National Forest Week (NFW)-BC Coalition is seeking professional foresters to volunteer to talk to students about wildfire, wood products, and “How forests make our lives better every day.”

The coalition, in partnership with the Canadian Institute of Forestry (CIF), helps co-ordinate volunteers for NFW events, as well as forestry-related educational opportunities year-round. The coalition also provides free educational materials for teachers and students on request.

“Our programs share the knowledge of our volunteers, covering the full scope of forest stewardship, the forest environment, and the integration of forest values,” says Bill Bourgeois, PhD, RPF(Ret), NFW-BC executive director.

Volunteering with the NFW coalition also counts toward continuing professional development (CPD) requirements.
