This is the right time to thank all of you for your great commitment in IUFRO and in particular in Division 9. This is the second year since Division 9 came into being and we have proven that the different social perspectives of science covered by Division 9 are of highest relevance in forest research and therefore in IUFRO. Many events you have organized and co-organized, not least our first All Division 9 conference in Sarajevo have contributed to tighten the network of and within Division 9 and exchange knowledge and experiences. Thank you for all your efforts!! However, one task is remaining. I am asking all coordinators and deputy-coordinators of Division 9 research groups and working parties to send me a report about the 2012 activities of the group (organizing/co-organizing events, communication, publishing) in order to allow me and IUFRO as an organization to recognize and communicate all your activities in the best way. Furthermore I would like to ask as well for your plans for the next year. Both parts can be reported in one document. Please send the report and plans document to me not later than January 15, 2013. Furthermore we need to nominate a potential candidate for Division 9 coordination for the next term (2014- 2019). The coordinator position is the only one in the Division that needs to be elected by the IUFRO council. Nominations are possible until January 31, 2013. All individual members within IUFRO are allowed to nominate. The nominated person needs to accept nomination and a signature of his/her organization is needed as well. Please find details (and the necessary forms) at the following link: http://www.iufro.org/circular-members-nominations-2015-19/. I wish you all a great season and I am looking forward to meet all of you in another successful year of Division 9 in 2013. With sincerest regards Daniela Daniela Kleinschmit Assoc.
