Our technical expertise supporting European forests

This collaboration with D'Ieteren is not new; we've been experimenting with it for 3 years. What is new today are the additional and complementary resources and expertise to fulfill our mission even more efficiently. Considering the growing scale of climate challenges, this investment will enable us to accelerate our actions and amplify the impact of our projects in favor of forest resilience and all the benefits they deliver. How ? By supporting some research and studies on sustainable forest management, by developing a reliable and quantifiable mechanism for measuring natural carbon capture, and by federating as many players as possible around this crucial cause. We are enthusiastic about this development, supported by a two-hundred-year-old experimented Belgian company with whom we share a long-term vision!

The 2024-2025 season is in the starting blocks at Sylva Nova: 30 years of experience to celebrate, two new forestry experts directly adopted, a new website to better describe who we are and what we do, in spring or autumn colours, new offices for better interaction, the first FSC® Ecosystem Services certifications to be obtained, European research projects in the pipeline... We're ready to move forward!

The meticulous restoration of neglected coniferous plots in our Argenteau pilot forest demonstrates that the use of horses is not at all a nostalgic or folkloric idea but, in combination with judiciously calibrated technical resources, constitutes a solution for the future facing certain challenges. Thank you to our partner D'Ieteren for helping us to bring such projects to fruition.
