The Forum Carpaticum is an open meeting of the Science for the Carpathians (S4C) initiative.

The aim of the Forum is to:
- Advance Carpathian research on climate, water, ecological processes, nature conservation, sustainable use of natural resources, human-environment interactions, education for sustainable development
- Actively encourage researchers and stakeholders to exchange ideas, knowledge and research results, fostering dialogue between researchers, policy makers, and practitioners
- Promote new inter-disciplinary and trans-disciplinary collaborations, establishing links between S4C, local and regional authorities, and stakeholders involved in environmental management
The conference will be held from 21st June to 25th June, 2021, in the Conference centre of Mendel University in Brno, Czech Republic. The organizers will do their best to adapt the format of the conference to the evolving Covid-19 situation; options include a standard conference, a hybrid meeting with both physical and virtual participants or a fully online meeting.
