Polonca Lovšin: What Women Foresters Told Me
The zine What Women Foresters Told Me spotlights women foresters, hunters, and forest owners in Slovenia and examines our relationship to the forest through the perspective of gender. It relies on research by the Slovenian Forestry Institute Fem4Forest: Forests in Women’s Hands (2020–22) which shows that female forest owners, in contrast to their male counterparts, are more likely to prioritize the ecological and social functions of their forest land over commercial interests.
