I’m pleased to share that my course, Introduction to Arboriculture and Urban Tree Management, at the Transdisciplinary University in Bengaluru is now live.

It is a 3 credit course which can be attended entirely online, with a mix of prerecorded and live sessions.
It covers basics of tree functions and characteristics, urban tree planting, pruning and assessment. The aim is to support the transition towards more informed, science-based and appropriate tree management practices in India.
Developing arboriculture in India requires both knowledge and a shift in how we understand and manage trees in our urban environments.
I hope this course can contribute to that process.
