Between Tradition and Increasing Challenges: Future Development of Small-scale and Community Forestry in Times of Global Change
Foz do Iguacu, Brazil // 26 September 2016 — 29 September 2016
Dear Colleagues,
We are pleased to announce a joint and co-hosted meeting of three IUFRO groups (3.08.00, 9.03.00 and 9.05.06) close to the border between Brazil, Argentina and Paraguay at Foz do Iguacu. The conference will provide a unique opportunity to bring together researchers from all over the world to share evidence-based knowledge on small-scale and community forestry issues in Latin America, including the ecological, institutional and anthropogenic factors influencing the management and evolution of forests and forest landscapes. As traditional knowledge plays a substantial role in both small-scale and community forest ownership models, the integration of a historical dimension will provide an additional source of information in order to interpret and understand the challenges and constraints related to global change.
Participants are encouraged to submit their abstracts for oral or poster presentation. Abstracts are due by June 15, 2016 (second call). Abstracts should not exceed 300 words and should outline the aims and contents of the presentation. The abstract submission format is available for download at the conference website: http://www.latinoamericajointiufromeeting.com/. Please send your abstract to: mgabay(a)ambiente.gob.ar and communityforestry.iufro(a)gmail.com.
Please note also that registration is now open at http://www.latinoamericajointiufromeeting.com/registration/!

Hello:
We look forward to the upcoming IUFRO Communications and Public Relations Working Party and United Nations FAO-ECE Forest Communicators Network Workshop. The agenda is nearly finalized as attached. The workshop will be held at the DoubleTree Hotel in Portland, Oregon. Information for making reservations at this as well as other hotels is below. We do ask that you make hotel reservations on your own.
We will have registration through IUFRO shortly where you can indicate what portions of the meeting you will be attending and also contribute to the costs of refreshments. Registration will be important so we know exactly how many will be attending
The program and logistics are pulling together very well, and I am excited that the workshop is now less than 3 months away.
