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.

Details of the blog competition are at: https://forests2015.wordpress.com/2015/05/08/announcing-forests2015-blog-competition/
