The Interreg Sudoe is coming to an end after 3 years of hard work and achieving many project outcomes. Now it is time to present them at the Project final conference which will be held on November 9th and 10th in Bordeaux (France).

This will provide a unique opportunity to hold a global vision of the work done which is framed in these tree pillars:  

• During the conference, the new resin extraction methods, the profitability and the international markets for the biologic-originated products will be identified.

• You will discover the marketing and traceability tools and the resin quality assessments the Project has implemented as well as any suggestions made to improve the resin workers’ working conditions.
• Considering this is a long-term Project, you will be able to join the several networks created to sustain the resin extraction activity.  

The final conference is jointly organised by the European Institute of the Cultivated Forests, the Centre National de la Propriété Forestière and  Fundación Cesefor.
