Space Technologies in Forestry and Forestry Education This report points out that many of the problems confronting modern professional forestry education are deeply rooted and are common to other disciplines and indeed to education in general. The report describes how fundamental changes in technology (specifically space-based earth monitoring), society, the economy and the forest sector affect forestry education directly and indirectly. It also examines some of the basic issues relating to society's perception of what constitutes education and the implications for forestry education as it is perceived now. The Moscow program on implementing space and renewables technologies presented as a success example. The attempts to implement innovational modules at the MSAU into forestry and agriculture education are described.
