by Bikash Rath
Dear members of Division 9 mailing list,
I am happy to inform you that the first event under facilitation of our WP
on Community Forestry is going to be organized by RCDC(www.rcdcindia.org) at
Bhubaneswar(India) on 22-23 December 2010. The event title is 'Silviculture
in Community Forestry', and the objective is to facilitate a capacity
building of purely community forestry groups who do not normally
>> practice scientific forestry. The following table shows the topics to be
>> discussed there:
Silviculture: concept, objective, practice, and issues
>>
>> Sharing of knowledge of indigenous practices of silviculture
>>
>> Silvicultural benefits in Joint Forest Management
>>
>> Species-specific silviculture & its advantages
>>
>> Silvicultural operations in kanta bamboo(Bambusa bambos): issues &
>> solutions
>>
>> Pro-poor silviculture
>>
>> Silviculture for new practitioners(communities)
>>
>> Siliviculture in degraded forests
>>
>> Silviculture vis-à-vis wildlife
>>
>>
>> It is a state-level programme, and probably first of its kind. If however
>> any IUFRO member wants to participate in this event on his/her own(given
>> our resource constraints), then we very much welcome him/her.

Congratulations and Welcome to IUFRO Division 9 2010-2014
by burger
Dear colleagues,
It is my pleasure to send you my congratulations to your position as
officeholders in our new Division 9 on Forest Policy and Economics in IUFRO
(which has been approved by the Board this week). Thanks to all of you who
have been willing to take over the positions but as well to those who
supported to establish the structure and identifying person with the
experience and background to support the Division. You can find the
structure and officeholders at the IUFRO web pages,
http://www.iufro.org/science/divisions/division-9/. Recent changes will be
done after the next IUFRO Board meeting.
The aim of Division 9 is to strengthen the social dimension in IUFRO and I
guess we all have the aspiration to do so. To meet the challenge a few
responsibilities are linked with the IUFRO position. These responsibilities
can be summarized under the following headlines: a) Lead the Unit (Research
Group or Working Party) in its scientific and business activities, b)
Initiate and organize meetings (ideally at least one) between the IUFRO
World Congresses, c) Prepare and distribute periodic reports (which will be
requested in January), d) Initiate publications and to maintain contact with
the members of the group (email list, web page).
I especially would like to stress the last point as IUFRO is a network and
the main aim is to collaborate and to network communication is essential.
For this reason I would like to ask you to use the webpage and fill in the
requested information (especially those on state of the art and activities)
and keep it updated as well as for using the email list of our Division. If
you would like to establish own email lists for your groups, please use the
IUFRO facilities as well (I would be very happy to become member of your
email lists as well - that would keep me updated about the activities in the
group). The use of the communicative tools supports to emphasize the
activities, need and use of the different groups within IUFRO. For technical
support regarding the webpage and the email list please contact Brigitte
Burger ( <mailto:burger@iufro.org> burger(a)iufro.org) from the secretariat
who kindly supports these facilities.
The planning for the groups, aims and activities for the time from now to
2014 are the next steps that needs to be taken. Thus, I would like to ask
you to finalize the aims and (rough) planning for your group. If not done
already I would like to ask you to send your planning to me until the 10th
of January 2011. Please send a copy as well to Brigitte Burger to get it
posted on the webpage (if not done already).
I will come back soon to you with more information on the planned all
Division 9 meeting.
Please let me know if you have any further comments or questions. You are
of course welcome to contact as well the Deputy Coordinators of Division 9
Margaret Shannon ( <mailto:Margaret.Shannon@efi.int>
Margaret.Shannon(a)efi.int) or Konstantin von Teuffel (
<mailto:konstantin.teuffel@forst.bwl.de> konstantin.teuffel(a)forst.bwl.de)
With best wishes for the season
