Urban forestry management in Argentina

Overview

The VII National Congress of Arboriculture and Urban Forests was held in Posadas, Misiones, bringing together over 200 specialists from Argentina and several other nations to discuss biodiversity, climate change adaptation, and urban green infrastructure.

During the event, various regional initiatives were highlighted, such as La Pampa’s ‘Pulmones Urbanos’ program, which utilizes native species to mitigate heatwaves and intense rainfall, and research from Zapala regarding urban tree carbon stock dynamics.

Following the congress, Argentine municipalities have continued to focus on urban forestry management. In San Fernando, a collaborative training program with the National University of Catamarca has expanded the Municipal Registry of Pruners to 52 certified workers to ensure sustainable silvicultural interventions.
