Forestry Centre of Excellence
The South Australian Government has committed $15 million over 10 years for a new Forestry Centre of Excellence in Mount Gambier. This incorporates the National Institute for Forest Products Innovation (NIFPI) and other forestry funding streams.
We anticipate that the Centre will be acknowledged as an international leader in forest industries for research, education, product, and market development. It will enhance the Green Triangle region through building local capacity, national collaboration, and reputation.
