Dear IUFRO Division 2 Officeholders:

Please take a good look at the attached “1st Announcement and call of abstracts for the
FIRST IUFRO-FORNESSA REGIONAL CONGRESS” and “the Congress poster” that will be held in
Nairobi, Kenya (25 – 30, JUNE 2012).  I strongly feel that this meeting could offer
Division 2 a platform to show our latest research ideas as well as an opportunity to
interact on a personal level and discuss/plan Division 2’s future directions.

It is also important to note that the IUFRO Board will also be meeting during this time,
so this will provide a rare chance to interact with the Board and share our ideas. 
Santiago Gonzalez-Martinez and I will act as the contact people for organizing Division 2
session.  So, please send this e-mail to your mailing list and encourage members
participation.  Kenya is a fantastic place to visit and we rarely get the chance to go to
Africa.

Please let Santiago  and I of your plans and if you intend to attend and contribute an
oral or a poster presentation to this meeting.  At this stage, we will not restrict
ourselves to a particular theme and will endeavour to make it complementary to the
Congress theme.

I look forward to hearing from you all and I can’t say how excited I am about this rare
opportunity.

Take care,

Yousry El-Kassaby
Division 2 Coordinator
