We are delighted to announce that our sixth IUFRO 2.09.02 Unit Conference will be held from 3-8 March 2024 in Rotorua, New Zealand!

"The might of vegetative propagation for healthy and productive forests to face climate challenges".

Please, check out the preliminary announcement in attachment and the 2 related documents (Invitation Letter and Presentation document).

We will be welcomed by Dr. Jana Krajňáková (Senior Researcher for tissue culture) and Dr. Henri Baillères (General Manager forest to timber products) and their teams from Scion, a crown research institute that specialises in research, science and technology development for the forestry, wood product, wood-derived materials, and other biomaterial sectors.

We are looking forward to meeting you again in Rotorua!

Please help us disseminate this information to your colleagues, teams, IUFRO Units and other networks interested in vegetative propagation of trees and its applications for sustainable management of forests and tree plantations.
