Colleagues, The IUFRO All-Division 5 Conference is held every 5 years. It is an apolitical, international forum open to all nations, for conduct of the Division’s business, and for exchange of scientific, professional and technical information on forest products related subjects consistent with the Division's structure. Division 5 is currently soliciting bids for the 2017 All-Division 5 conference. If you and your institution are willing to host this conference, please visit the Guidelines and Bidding Rules at http://www.iufro.org/download/file/9492/2068/all-d5-2017-guidelines-bidding… for further details. Please note that the deadline for the submission of bids is 28 February 2014! We are hoping for and looking forward to receiving many outstanding bids! Best regards Andrew H.H. Wong, D.

Hi Brigitte, D5 is concerned that there may still be other IUFRO member organisations who have overlooked that there is a call for bids to host the 2017 D5 conference. The closing date is 28 February 2014. We are encouraging as many bids as possible. Re-attach is the same updated guidelines for submitting a bid. Could we ask IUFRO HQ to please remind the IUFRO global membership about this soonest possible? Much appreciated. Cheers, Andrew -- Andrew H.H.
