1st ANNOUNCEMENT AND CALL FOR PAPERS
MALAYSIA URBAN GREEN SPACE & IFPRA ASIA PACIFIC CONFERENCE 2014
Parks as Melting Pots & Venues for Environmental Learning
24-28 June 2014
Bayview Beach Resort, Batu Feringghi,
Penang, Malaysia
INTRODUCTION
Urbanization will continue to proceed at a rapid pace in Asia-Pacific region. It is forecasted that 17 out of 27 worlds largest mega-cities will be in Asia by 2015. Not only affecting population within cities of a country, migration to other countries is also common that most Asia Pacific cities are becoming melting pots of various cultures.
Parks and other types of green space help balance a hectic lifestyle acting as venues for recreation and other healthy lifestyle pursuits. Urban green space also serves as an excellent place for conservation of biodiversity resources, accessible enough for the public to appreciate and learn from. Thus, needs of a multi-cultural population and measures to ensure that natural resources will be conserved should be well addressed in park management. Recreational programmes with educational purposes need to be designed to benefit all users and encourage environment friendly practices.
The impact of urbanization is reflected in human lifestyles and infrastructural development for human needs will bear consequences on natural resources. Although biodiversity in Asia is among the richest in the world, many natural habitats are threatened. It is crucial for measures to be taken to conserve our rich biodiversity not only within natural forest areas but in the form of ex-situ conservation in urban parks and gardens where they can be sources for environmental education.
Learning from each others experience and benchmarking on excellent practices will encourage sustainable management of urban green space. This conference will be the most suitable forum for interactions that lead to excellent management practice of urban parks that not only benefit human but to aid biodiversity conservation. Balancing development and preserving the environment is crucial for sustainable development especially in urban areas where land is scarce and population is dense. This conference aims to address the challenges in balancing a healthy development for human needs and conservation of natural resources for sustainability.

Betreff: International Forum on Payments for Environmental Services of Tropical Forests, 7-10 April 2014, San José, Costa Rica
Message sent on behalf of Eva Muller, Director, Forest Economics, Policy and Products Division, FAO
Dear colleagues,
I am writing to inform you that FAO, ITTO and the Government of Costa Rica, will jointly convene an International Forum on Payments for Environmental Services of Tropical Forests in San José, Costa Rica, from 7-10 April 2014.
Ensuring sustainable supplies of goods and services from forests to enhance their vital contributions to socio-economic development lies at the core of Sustainable Forest Management (SFM). Yet, SFM in the tropics is often less profitable than other land-uses because many of the goods and services forests produce lack formal markets. Payments for forest environmental services (PES), such as biodiversity, tourism and recreation, water conservation, soil protection and climate change mitigation, is regarded as one such innovative means of financing SFM.
The International Forum aims to highlight the importance of developing and implementing PES mechanisms in tropical countries and to share best practices and lessons learned from the many activities and projects that have been undertaken in recent years to scale up global efforts to promote PES. The Forum is expected to recommend actions at local, national and international levels for the development and effective implementation of PES mechanisms in support of SFM in the tropics. It will bring together policymakers, researchers and academicians, practitioners, civil society, the private sector, and regional and international organizations engaged in the development, implementation and support of PES mechanisms.
On behalf of the organizers, I would like to invite you or your representative to attend the International Forum on Payments for Environmental Services of Tropical Forests. More details including a concept note, and registration form are available on FAO (http://www.fao.org/forestry/84884/en/) and ITTO (www.itto.int) websites. A preliminary programme will be made available shortly. Sponsorship is available for a limited number of participants from developing countries to attend the Forum. Those in need of sponsorship are required to fill in the respective section of the on-line registration form. Participants to be sponsored will be selected by the organizers based on the information provided as well as ensuring a geographical and gender balance.
Yours sincerely,
Eva Muller
Director
Forest Economics, Policy and Products Division, FAO
