Betreff: [Asb-global] Authors for case studies on the livelihood impacts ofpayments for environmental services and REDD
The Australian National University (ANU) is looking for authors interested to prepare ten papers on the livelihood impacts of payment for environmental services schemes, and implications for activities aimed to reduce emissions from deforestation and forest degradation. The case studies do not necessarily need to focus on forests.
ANU will pay AUD $6,000 per paper. They envision that these papers will be published in an edited book.
The terms of reference for the studies are available. Please download url:

Dear D8 Members,
Dr. Bjorn Hanell, Coordinator for Division 1, has asked me to publicize
a meeting on "Adaptation of Forests and Forest Management to Changing
Climates" scheduled for Umea, Sweden, 25-28 August 2008. Since Division
8 covers some important aspects of this theme, particularly within
Research Groups 8.01 and 8.02, I would encourage you to try to
participate in this meeting. If enough interest arises within D8, we may
want to propose a session for this meeting. It might also provide a good
opportunity for many of us within D8 to meet and discuss issues
pertaining to D8 and its activities.
More information on the meeting can be found here:
