LATIN views youth as a very strategic resource for improving Social Forestry. In order to achieve the vision of 10 million young people exposed to Social Forestry by 2045, LATIN has prepared a strategic roadmap containing strategic, systematic and structured steps for each activity that will be carried out. One of the activities to encourage this is by creating an education system that integrates the mainstreaming of Social Forestry into it. In response to this, LATIN will develop a Forestry Social Academy.
The Forestry Social Academy is one of the channels for knowledge management (Knowledge Management Cycle) which is being developed by LATIN as a reference and guideline in implementing the dissemination of Social Forestry knowledge by expanding materials, methods, models, and diversity of facilitator expertise in order to provide increased capacity and higher quality knowledge. This activity is the beginning to continue to promote and mainstream the discussion and dissemination of Social Forestry issues in Indonesia. The Forestry Social Academy was developed in various forms of a series of activities, including SESORE Batch 4 which was developed into SESOREGoes To Field, SESORE Goes to Campus (Academia Movement), Creative Hybrid Learning (DICTION) andForestry Social Learning Circle. In general, the common thread of the Forestry Social Academy is oneknowledge management system which consists of various learning series about Social Forestry.

In this context, LATIN invites and opens collaboration with several universities to build context and discourse about the future of Social Forestry.Academia movement This is done in a series of SESOREGoes to Campus which this year is collaborating with three educational institutions, namely Tanjungpura University, Mataram University, and Singapore University of Social Science.
