Welcome to the Marcus Wallenberg Prize Symposium Live

The 2023 Marcus Wallenberg Prize is awarded to Drs Darius Adams, Joseph Buongiorno, and Richard Haynes for their original and groundbreaking development of the forest sector economic models TAMM and PAPYRUS and its extension to the global forest products model GFPM. Their work laid the foundation for the development of global forest sector modelling and numerous national and regional forest sector models from the 1980s and onwards.
