Forest Adaptation Planning and Practices (FAPP) was designed as an active, hands-on training to help forest managers incorporate climate change considerations into their own real-world forest management projects. This training was held in August 2013 through a collaboration of the Northern Institute of Applied Climate Science, the College of Menominee Nation, the CMN Center for First American Forestlands, and the USDA Forest Service.

Participants in the FAPP training contributed eight individual forest management projects, covering a wide range of forest types and management goals. With coaching and input from workshop organizers, participants then carried these projects through the entire Adaptation Workbook process outlined in the Forest Adaptation Resources document. This process helped each group design climateinformed management projects that use innovative adaptation actions and practical monitoring metrics to gauge success. Participants also outlined personal next steps to continue to incorporate climate change considerations into their work.
