Like all NRPs, NRP 66 is very communications oriented. Therefore, the Steering Committee of NRP 66 attaches great importance to each of the research teams involving partners with practical commercial experience in their projects and transferring any new knowledge acquired for use at the appropriate practical level. At programme level, the priorities are for researchers to network among themselves and to maintain a dialogue with important stakeholder groups. NRP 66 also aims to make policymakers, authorities and non-governmental organisations aware of the need to create favourable conditions for using wood judiciously.rables à une gestion optimale du bois.
