12 February 2026 From the Executive Director Here we are in a new year! On behalf of the World Bamboo Organization, thank you for your interest in bamboo and your commitment to our global community. Together we are stronger—no single culm can stand alone without its rhizomes and grove. We're happy you are here to read about our initiatives in this first part of 2026. Ambassador Program Expansion We're expanding our Ambassador [https://www.worldbamboo.net/ambassadors]program this year. Thank you for your nominations! We'll announce our selections on April 1st. The enthusiasm and competence we see in bamboo projects worldwide continues to inspire us—interest in bamboo is clearly growing. Strengthening Our Scientific Foundation WBO has always relied on rigorous science to demonstrate bamboo's global potential. At a time when environmental protections are under threat and climate action faces political headwinds, our work matters more than ever. WBO Ambassador Dr. Johan Gielis [https://www.worldbamboo.net/team-2/johan-gielis-] and our Science Committee are developing an open-access repository of validated, curated bamboo research. Our goal: position WBO as the definitive authority on evidence-based bamboo science. Why This Matters Now In times like these, an inclusive, independent, global network dedicated to the bamboo community becomes vital. We're proud of our grassroots origins and three decades of progress. We remain convinced that bamboo offers climate-smart, nature-based solutions to build community resilience, strengthen economies worldwide, green the planet, and ensure species survival through robust ecosystems. Your support is vital to our success Thank you for being here. We are here for you.

ISCHP26 Updates and Last Call for Abstracts

by Brigitte Burger

Von: ischp-request(a)list.sun.ac.za Im Auftrag von Bruno Monteiro Balboni Gesendet: Mittwoch, 14. Jänner 2026 12:22 Betreff: ISCHP26 Updates and Last Call for Abstracts Dear colleagues, The final abstract submission deadline for the ISCHP 2026 conference of 20 January 2026 is approaching, and the Organizing Committee would like to share some important information about the conference. The list of keynote speakers is already available on our website. We are pleased to announce five distinguished researchers from different backgrounds, carefully selected to provide attendees with engaging talks on diverse topics (see https://ischp26.co.za/keynote-speakers/) Following the conference, all accepted and presented papers will be published in a book of proceedings. In the past, a special issue in the European Journal of Wood and Wood Products was dedicated to the conference, and we are in discussion with the editor to see if that will be possible again. More details on this will be provided soon. In less than a month, the Scientific Committee will begin the abstract evaluation process and will inform authors once feedback from the reviewers is available. We look forward to welcoming you to Stellenbosch, South Africa! For further information, please visit our website (https://ischp26.co.za/) or contact us at ischp26(a)sun.ac.za<mailto:ischp26@sun.ac.za>.
