Subject: Conference announcement and cfp: Community Forestry
Dear colleagues,
It is my pleasure to inform you about the conference “New Challenges for Community
Forestry: Sharing Scientific Knowledge in a South – North Perspective” to be held in
Remscheid, GERMANY, 23. – 25. September 2013. The conference is collaboratively organized
by the University of Göttingen and the Ministry of Climate, Environment and Agriculture in
North Rhine-Westphalia and supported by IUFRO.
Major topic of the conference will be the contribution of community forestry toward
overcoming current challenges, including community-based forest governance, forest-climate
change, the urbanisation of forest owners, biodiversity decline, equity amongst forest
users (including gender issues) and the role of community forests as sustainable energy
suppliers. Amongst others, keynote speakers are Arun Agrawal, Melanie McDermot, and
Wolfram Dressler.
Authors are invited to submit their proposal by sending an extended abstract . Deadline
for submission is February, 28 2013.
