Dear Friends and Colleagues,
We are pleased to share with you details of an upcoming IUFRO conference on Traditional Ecological Knowledge (TEK), ‘Transforming approaches to forests and forestry through Traditional and Local Knowledges: Reciprocity and relationship-building in forest ecosystems’ to be held on unceded xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam) Territory, at the University of British Columbia’s Faculty of Forestry 21-23 August 2019.
Principled, reciprocal relationships between researchers and Indigenous Peoples and Local Communities (IPLCs) are at the heart of this conference. Through this event, we welcome knowledge holders of forestry and the environment to share their experiences in building equitable relationships within customary territories. We hope to provide a point of convergence for Indigenous, Local and Western Knowledges, to challenge power dynamics between different ways of knowing, and to model the equitable co-production and sharing of knowledge. Accordingly, the Organizing Committee supports joint presentations, joint papers, and joint projects by and for researchers and IPLCs.
The conference will include an initial day of relationship building among all participants and talks, a panel discussion and workshop events on the following two days. Our objective is to host a different kind of conference that positions the needs, perspectives, and authority of IPLCs at the centre of social-ecological research.
Individual submissions (abstracts)
We invite submission of individual abstracts for poster and oral presentations, artistic performances and exhibitions, songs, workshops, roundtable and panel discussions, and storytelling of up to 300 words addressing one of the following conference themes:
1. Upholding and disseminating forest research practices that comply with Indigenous laws and protocols
2. Weaving Indigenous, Local and Scientific Knowledges and practices together in cross-scale/cross-border/collaborative/participatory forest planning
3. Emerging strategies and technologies for protecting data sovereignty
4. Relational ways of knowing: IPLC cosmologies, more-than-human agency, Rights to Nature
5. Arts-based and IPLC research methods / outputs
6. TEK and food sovereignty
Abstracts should include a description of how principled, reciprocal relationships between researchers and Indigenous Peoples and Local Communities (IPLCs) are being, or have been, upheld as part of the research process.
The deadline for abstracts has now been EXTENDED to 15 March 2019. Accepted abstracts will be notified by 15 April 2019. See http://tek.forestry.ubc.ca<http://tek.forestry.ubc.ca/> for more information.
Dear colleagues,
I would like to inform you about our call for papers for a panel at ICPP4 - MONTREAL 2019 (see attached)
"Contested Knowledge and Expertise in Sustainability Politics" that might be interesting for some of
you (especially for those working on science-policy interfaces in forest/sustainability policy)
We are very much looking forward to receiving your paper proposals. (deadline Jan 30, 2019)

Dear Division 9 colleagues
first of all, I would like to thank you all for your activities and
support of IUFRO and specifically IUFRO Division 9 activities. Its been
again a good year of collaboration. And I would like to take the chance
to send you seasons greetings and wishes for a good start into the new

As you will have been informed earlier, the *deadline for submitting
abstracts* to The World Congress is extended until *January 10th 2019*.
I am pleased to say that there are plenty of sessions organized by
Division 9 - so a lot of space to discuss newest results of social
scientific forest research.
There is also Scientist Assistance Programme (SAP) for supporting
scientists from economically disadvantaged countries whose age below 46
years old. SAP registration will be started from *1 March 2019*. Full
information on this scholarship can be found here:

Dear Colleagues,
The IUFRO Communications and Public Relations Working Party and Embrapa colleagues from Brazil are co-organizing a session at the 2019 XXV International Union of Forest Research Organizations World Congress<http://iufro2019.com/> in Curitiba, Brazil from 29 September to 5 October 2019. Abstracts are due December 31, 2018.
To submit an abstract, find the link at Call for Abstracts<http://iufro2019.com/abstracts-submission/>. Oral presentations and posters are included in the call. Consider sharing emerging and innovative approaches such as role-playing exercises, interactions involving computer simulation, co-generation of research, trade-off scenarios, and other complex communications efforts. Both scientists and communication professionals are encouraged to submit to this session.
The session is titled “Delivering and communicating forest science for people and a greener future” and its description follows:
It is not just what you say, but how you say it and who you say it to. The rigor of science and the underlying data can be appreciated by other scientists; but the general public want to know why they should care and decision makers want to know what the data means and how they should interpret your findings. This means going beyond a peer-reviewed publication. It means translating and disseminating your research directly to your audience. This session will explore unique and innovative approaches used by scientists to deliver and communicate their research to the public and decision makers. Have you created a podcast, a video or other tool to tell the story of your science? What have you learned from your approach? Do you host webinars to help others understand your research? What tips do you have for successful online dialogue? Have you created an infographic to help simplify your research for a non-scientific audience? Do you feel it was effective? Have you tried a virtual tour of a field research site or virtual technology transfer? Were the stakeholders satisfied, could virtual tools be a substitute for field tours? How did you determine which approach to use and how do you evaluate your success in using these approaches? Would you recommend this approach to other scientists? Through a series of presentations and posters, we will discuss approaches used by scientists to share their research and what they have learned through that process. This session also seeks to demo effective tools or techniques being developed by IUFRO members to help communicate the importance of forest science. We hope this session will promote discussion and exchange of experiences related to the dissemination of forest research.
There are many other topics (almost 200 technical sessions) that also might suit your interests. Find the call for abstracts, brief description of the technical sessions, and registration at: http://iufro2019.com/abstracts-submission/. Authors are limited to a maximum of two abstracts as presenting author.
You need to register to be able to submit an abstract (no payment due at this time). The deadline for abstract submission is 31 December 2018. Once your abstract is accepted for presentation (announcement will be made on 28 February 2019), early registration for presenter and payment deadline is 31 May 2019.
There is also Scientist Assistance Program (SAP) for supporting scientists from economically disadvantaged countries whose age is below 46 years old. SAP registration will begin 1 March 2019. Full information on this scholarship can be found here: http://iufro2019.com/scientist-assistance-program-sap/
Please feel free to share this information to your colleagues. We hope you will submit an abstract and share your work at the upcoming IUFRO World Congress.
