[IUFRO Div 8] Announcing the #Forests2015 Blog Competition

Colleagues! Scientists! Forest research projects are often carried out without the public knowing much about them. If you think that your research project deserves more attention than that, here is your chance: showcase your research work in the blog competition of the XXIV World Forestry Congress! By submitting a blogpost you can help to significantly boost awareness, engagement and investments in forestry in general and on one of the six Congress sub-themes in particular: * Forests for socioeconomic development and food security * Building resilience with forests * Integrating forests and other land uses * Encouraging product innovation and sustainable trade * Monitoring forests for better decision-making * Improving governance by building capacity The blog competition closes on July 31 midnight CET.
