Greetings to all Division 4 members!
We are only a week away from the 26th IUFRO World Congress in Stockholm and we wanted to
provide you with some additional information about activities involving the Division.
First, several administrative meetings with take place on Tuesday and Thursday evenings
and are listed below. Please attend the Division 4 Business meeting on Thursday 27 June at
18:00 in Room K23. A brief agenda is provided below, indicating that we will discuss the
incoming officers and plans for the division for 2024-2029. We are looking for several
officers, so please attend and volunteer!
One of the plans for 2024-2029 is to develop a Webinar Series that will include two
webinars from each research Group. RG .01.00 has hosted a similar series for the past two
years that has been very successful, and we would like to expand this to all of Division
4. We will be discussing this at the business meeting and would appreciate your
suggestions and involvement.

As always, Division 4 is well represented in the World Congress Sessions, many of which
are listed in the latest Div 4 Newsletter, which is available on our IUFRO webpage
(
https://www.iufro.org/science/divisions/division-4/40000/) under ‘Publications and
References’.
Also, the full WC program can be found at:
https://iufro2024.com/detailed-programme/. The
format of the program does not identify sessions by Division specifically, but if you type
‘4’ or some more specific such as ‘4.01’, the program will list those sessions in which
Division 4 members are involved or that should be of interest to our members.
Finally, we are continuing our newsletter as we move forward, and it will be more regular,
as we have increased our capacity for this. Please be sure to respond when asked for
information for the newsletter.
We hope to see you in Stockholm!
