Turning a Problem into a Product

Published on December 23, 2025

The College of Forestry’s international programs are designed to foster global connections and innovative research. Last summer, Sadete Zela, a visiting scholar from Albania, exemplified this mission. We recently had the chance to chat with her about her experiences at Oregon State University.

We acknowledge that our facilities and forests are located on the traditional homelands of a diversity of Indigenous Peoples who were forcibly removed from their lands and relocated to reservations. We navigate, and are part of, systems that marginalize people, and we take thoughtful action to decolonize our practices and ensure a diverse, inclusive and equitable environment for work and study that honors Sovereignty Rights. We respect the contributions of Indigenous communities and center our work around the Seventh Generation Principle, and incorporate multiple ways of knowing and cultural humility into our understanding and stewardship of natural resources.
