Dear Participants to 'Coimbra2018',
Dear Contributors to the Proceedings of 'Coimbra2018',
Dear Members of the IUFRO 2.09.02 Unit and colleagues of IUFRO Division 2,
Following the 5th Conference of the IUFRO Unit 2.09.02 "Somatic embryogenesis and other vegetative propagation technologies" that was held in Coimbra, Portugal (University of Coimbra, Center for Functional Ecology, Sept. 10-15, 2018), we are pleased to announce that the Proceedings on "Clonal Trees in the Bioeconomy Age: Opportunities and Challenges" have now been published at the following IUFRO webpages:
http://www.iufro.org/science/divisions/division-2/20000/20900/20902/publica…https://www.iufro.org/publications/proceedings/proceedings-meetings-2018/#c…
Please forward this advertisement to any colleague in your team interested by vegetative propagation technologies of trees and other woody plants and related issues!
On behalf of all IUFRO 2.09.02 Members, we would like here to warmly thank Pr. Jorge Canhoto & Dr. Sandra Correia (University of Coimbra, Portugal) and the whole local organizing team of this successful IUFRO 2.09.02 conference (122 attendees), the hosting/supporting organizations as well as all other sponsors. IUFRO's support to facilitate our scientific exchange and networking events is also greatly appreciated.
Thank you to all contributors to these Proceedings (328 pages) which contain 63 contributions (24 full papers, 14 extended abstracts and 25 short abstracts). We take this opportunity to also express our deep gratitude to Dr. Jan M. Bonga and Dr. Yill-Sung Park (NRC/Canadian Forest Service) who offered again to handle all the submissions during the reviewing process. Definitely, without your invaluable help and extensive experience, the Proceedings could not have been published so quickly!
We hope that you will enjoy the Proceedings and find both scientific information of great interest for your research and networking and also wonderful memories of 'Coimbra2018'. We encourage you to continuously promote the activities of our IUFRO Unit, in particular through the dissemination/citation of the contributions in these Proceedings.
Our 6th IUFRO 2.09.02 Conference is already scheduled next year in 2020 (dates to be confirmed). Pr. Hailong Shen (Northeast Forestry University) is planning to welcome us in Harbin, China. Thank you so much Pr. Shen for the great proposal to organize Harbin 2020! We would like therefore to kindly suggest to all our members that you consider this conference on vegetative propagation of trees as your primary choice to get funding from your institutions when planning to attend conferences in 2020! Join us for the latest advances in vegetative propagation of trees and also to discover the world-renowned "Ice City" with rich historical and cultural heritages!
Enjoy your reading and looking forward to hearing from you at upcoming IUFRO 2.09.02 activities and events, especially Harbin 2020!
Do not hesitate to contact us for any inquiry/idea about vegetative propagation of trees in the frame of the IUFRO 2.09.02 Unit. Some useful information (positions, events, etc.) can be posted at our Unit Noticeboard (https://www.iufro.org/science/divisions/division-2/20000/20900/20902/notice…) We would like also to remember you that IUFRO is offering the possibility for any registered Member to contact the whole IUFRO 2.09.092 membership through sending Emails to wp20902(a)lists.iufro.org<mailto:wp20902@lists.iufro.org> (scientific and technical issues, networking, etc.). The list is a moderated list by IUFRO HeadQuarters so that your posts will be held until they are approved (inappropriate contents will be discarded).
If not already a member, log in at https://www.iufro.org/science/divisions/division-2/20000/20900/20902/mailin… to join the WP 2.09.02 list (currently 711 members from 68 countries) and be able to send information, questions, thoughts and more!

WANGARI MAATHAI "FOREST CHAMPIONS" AWARD - ANNOUNCEMENT OF 2019 AWARDS
You are invited to nominate a candidate for the 2019 CPF Wangari Maathai
"Forest Champions" Award by 10 May! This is a unique opportunity to
acknowledge an inspiring individual who has improved our forests and the
lives of people that depend on them.
The Collaborative Partnership on Forests (CPF) is awarding one extraordinary
individual for improving our forests and the lives of people who depend on
them!
The CPF launched the first Wangari Maathai Award in 2012 to honour and
commemorate the impact of this extraordinary woman who championed forest
issues around the world. In 2019, the CPF will award another individual for
her/his outstanding achievements for forests.
The awardee will receive a cash prize of USD20,000 along with international
recognition of the outstanding contributions to preserve, restore and
sustainably manage forests and to raise awareness of the key role forests
play in supporting local communities, rural livelihoods, women, youth and
the environment.
The Wangari Maathai Award is an initiative of CBD, CIFOR, CITES, FAO, GEF,
ICRAF, ITTO, IUCN, IUFRO, UNCCD, UNDP, UNEP, UNFCCC, UNFF and World Bank,
all members of the CPF. Nominations will be reviewed by an international
jury of renowned personalities, who will also take into consideration such
elements as empowering women, youth and civil society, fostering social
commitment, promoting networks and improving the valuation of forests in
society.
Eligibility: Applicants should be nominated by a third party. Nominees may
be persons, living or recently deceased, who have made exceptional
contributions to forests. Professional and research contributions will only
be considered if they are conducted outside of normal work-related
responsibilities. Applications received from a nominee's kin or business
partner are not eligible for consideration. Applications related to
grassroots initiatives are particularly encouraged.
Selection: The closing date for receipt of nominations is 10 May 2019. The
awardee will be selected by a jury nominated by CPF members, which will take
into account gender and regional balance when considering potential
awardees.
Announcement: The awardee will be notified of their selection via email in
mid-August 2019. This year's Wangari Maathai Award will be presented on 30
September 2019, at the XXV IUFRO World Congress to be held at Expo Unimed on
29 September - 5 October 2019 in Curitiba, Brazil.

It's an 18-month project and the post-doc candidate will work both at UPSC and INRA. Target conifer species are spruce and larch.
Closing date for full application: May 15, 2019
