Forest research in Uruguay is a relatively new matter considered since half a century by the academic institutions. For a "forest time
scale" is this time a very short one. And for stakeholders that have to be phase in generations, means at least less than two.
1963 began the first forest science lessons as an orientation or specialization by the Forest Science Department at the Agricultural Sciences Faculty. 20 years before, started a technical training curricula to prepare people in forest silviculture at a praxis level. Since 2014 exists an exclusively forest 5-years graduate program. 1968 and 1988 the government of Uruguay proclaim by law the protection, the improvement, the enlargement and the afforestation of woodlands. The second proclamation moved the country to a significantly increase of planted forests and the respectively development of the sector. In this context the private sector and the society request more and more for local knowledge about forestry and his interaction with the environment.
This contribution try to demonstrate the importance interconnecting forests, science and people on a comprehensive view in a country like Uruguay with a very young forest culture. The case study is based on the experience of the National Agricultural Research Institute, created 1989 as a public legal person within the non-state private law. The governance, the research projects definitions and the technological transfer methodologies are discussed. A direct assignment of resources and the corresponding response on projects and technological results proves the weight of an early interaction with the stakeholders as well as the communication at different levels of the society. On the basis of two projects, different processes of actions and feedbacks are analyzed.
A public-private research organization seems to be a good arrangement in promote co-innovation thru research work.
