WWF-Russia conducts comprehensive educational and eco-educational work for adults (18+ years only). With our help, forest sector, forest management decision making bodies, customs and authorities who deal with forest-related issues, forestry, transportation and export-import operations with timber, become experts in the field of sustainable forest management.

The scope of our educational publications and activities cover all the main aspects of WWF-Russia Forest Program on High Conservation Value Forests (HCVF), voluntary forest certification standards under the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) scheme, illegal logging prevention, forest and climate agenda, the Russian forest legislation, ecoratings.

Since 2003 WWF-Russia publishes Sustainable Forestry Magazine which is well known among forest sector professionals and enthusiasts.

Through the work with the universities, a curriculum of «Basics of Sustainable Forest Management» was drafted, which is used in many universities to train forest profile specialists. It is useful by representatives of forest management authorities, NGOs and responsible forest businesses.
