An article has been published on the science page of taz.die tageszeitung that introduces the Sociological Forest Research Network and places it in the context of current challenges in forest management and the social science approach to it. Flumen employee Jana Holz launched the network in 2023 with the first sociological forest symposium in Jena in cooperation with Anna Saave (University of Freiburg), Ronja Schröder (formerly University of Oldenburg) and Ronja Mikoleit (FVA Freiburg). The online mailing list now includes over 100 people and the third symposium is already being planned for 2025.
