What is Mycoforum?

Mycoforum® is an international event created by the European Grouping for Territorial Cooperation “European Mycological Institute” (EGTC-EMI) in order to facilitate the exchange of scientific-technical knowledge between Mycological Parks and promote the responsible use of forest mycological resources as an engine of rural development.

It aims to facilitate innovative cooperation between the public-private agents involved based on quality mycological products and services capable of generating territorial attractiveness from cities to rural areas.

In addition, Mycoforum will sensitize society about:

The ecological importance of fungi in forests.
The importance of considering fungi in forest management (mycosilviculture).
The different usable local species, where and how to collect them responsibly.
The importance of quality control to ensure food safety and avoid fraud.
The most suitable ways of using mushrooms in the kitchen to enjoy all their qualities.
Mycotourism: mycological parks, local agri-food products, fairs, conferences, specialized restaurants, etc.
