Marc Palahì

Marc Palahí is the Director of the European Forest Institute and responsible for leading the organisation as an interface between science, policy and society. Marc has a PhD in forestry and is an expert on forests and global change. He has written articles about the transformational role of forests in fighting climate change and developing a European bioeconomy. Marc believes that as we are facing unprecedented global challenges, such as climate change, water, energy and food security, migration crisis and biodiversity loss, science is more important than ever – and science needs to partner with media to have impact. Solving the global issues needs more scientists speaking like journalists and more journalists thinking like scientists.
