✨ We had the honour of participating in the II International Symposium on Biodiversity and Ecosystem Functions in a Context of Global Change, in Alghero (Sardinia), from 12 to 14 November 2025. The ISAFOM delegation - composed of Ilaria Guagliardi, Nicola Ricca, Silvano Fares and Giorgio Matteucci (former ISAFOM Director) - brought the contribution of our research.
📚 ISAFOM presented 6 scientific contributions, concrete evidence of our Institute's ongoing commitment to the study of agro-forestry and environmental systems.
🌍 A valuable opportunity for international comparison and growth for the scientific community.
