Dear all,
Please before you forget begin gathering the information of all the numerous
things you did during the year as part of this great IUFRO network. In order
for me to resemble the information please send a resume of the activities in
relation to Division 8 that your WP, your Unit your Task Force etc. etc.
were involved during this year. I am certain that will be also great events
to report that took place in Curitiba. Please send reports and pretty
pictures using this subject on your email if the photos and/or the report
is heavy please use We transfer or similar do not send heavy files because
my system will block them and I will not receive any notification
Looking forward to learn more on your exiting activities during the year
Cheers
Sandra
