Dear D5 colleagues,
Here's encouraging you to collaborate with your colleagues in Latin America
to organise fores products sessions at this IUFRO congress. This should be
a worthwhile venue to hold such meetings on forest products too. Look
forward to your engagement with the IUFROLAT organisers soon. Please note
deadline for submission of abstracts.
Cheers
Andrew

Dear member of the IUFRO network,
Dear friend of IUFRO,
The International Union of Forest Research
Organizations (IUFRO) and the Agriculture
Research and Higher Education Center
(CATIE) will jointly organize the Third
IUFRO Latin American Congress, to be held
in San José, Costa Rica from 12 to 15 June
2013. Partners in this event are the
Ibero-American Model Forest Network
(RIABM), FAO and several IUFRO member
organizations in the region.
The overall goal of the Congress is to
demonstrate how forest science is
impacting on livelihoods, environment and
sustainable development in Latin America
and the Caribbean Region. The Congress
will highlight research that puts relevant
information in the hands of decision
makers in the management and policy arenas
at national and regional levels.
The Congress organisers welcome all
interested parties to submit abstracts in
order to share and discuss research
results, new ideas, approaches to forest
and landscape management, experiences,
conceptual models and initiatives of
interest. The first call for submission of
abstracts is attached here. The deadline
for the submission of abstracts is 31
December 2012.
Official languages of the Congress will be
Spanish and English.
