The Institute's international activities are based on close cooperation with the world's leading educational and research organizations, in particular, International Institute for Applied Systems Analysis (IIASA), by the Department of Forestry and Environmental Studies and the Yale University for School of Forestry and Environmental Studies, The Global Interagency Security Forum (Yale University FES, GISF), Faculty of Forest Resources at Pennsylvania State University (PennState), University of Vermont, James Hutton Institute, Wroclaw University of Environmental and Sciences, University of Freiburg, University of Applied Sciences (Vilnius, Lithuania), international organizations - FAO, UN ISDR, Global Fire Monitoring Center (GFMC), UNECE, Council of Europe, etc. Active international activities are highlighted by numerous international projects with the US Forest Service, the Ukrainian-Austrian OeAD project, etc.

     International cooperation at the institute is aimed at implementing international research projects together with foreign partner institutions, foreign internships for teachers, and the development of international student exchange programs). The GFMC provides an umbrella of 14 independent Regional Wildland Fire Networks of different / individual origins and mandates. Its mission is to reduce the negative impacts of landscape fires on the environment and humanity. Advance the knowledge and application of the ecologically and environmentally benign role of natural fire in fire-dependent ecosystems, and sustainable application of fire in land-use systems.
