New Paper: Attracting and retaining women in forest entomology and forest pathology.

by Brigitte Burger

[Ein Bild, das Text, Schrift, Screenshot, Diagramm enth?lt. Automatisch generierte Beschreibung]Inclusion of women in the forest entomology and forest pathology workforce has been a difficult journey. While policies and resources exist for organizations and departments to increase diversity and retain women, there still exist large gaps in gender parity at forest research institutions globally. It is imperative that we better understand the barriers that exist for women in forest entomology and pathology so that more inclusive environments can be created that are welcoming towards women and other underrepresented groups. To assess these barriers and subsequent opportunities for improvement, we surveyed forest entomology and pathology professionals globally to ask about their experiences in the workforce. We also provide examples of trends in gender representation at relevant institutions. Barriers to success for women and men were very different; women experienced more barriers related to family caretaking while men experienced more barriers related to funding opportunities. These differences show where opportunities lie to better attract, support, and retain women in forest entomology and forest pathology. Although some trends in gender representation are promising, large gaps continue to exist which need to be addressed. Open access https://doi.org/10.1016/j.forpol.2023.103022 Citation: Jessica A.

IUFRO 2024 Session 'Public engagement to keep urban trees and communities healthy'

by Hulbert, Joseph Michael

Greetings friends and colleagues, Apologies for cross posting. Please consider joining us in Sweden next June (2024) for a special session at the IUFRO 2024 World Congress. The session ‘Public engagement to keep urban trees and communities healthy’ (details below) is accepting both oral and poster presentations. Please note the deadline for abstract submissions is June 15, 2023. IUFRO XXVI World Congress Session in Stockholm Sweden, June 23-29 2024 (https://iufro2024.com/) Title: Public engagement to keep urban trees and communities healthy ID: 50013 Session type: Technical Duration: 120 minutes Congress theme: 4: Forests for sustainable societies Oral and poster presentations welcome! Organizers: Joey Hulbert1, Ana Perez-Sierra2, Rich Hallett3, Susan Hester4 1Washington State University, United States 2Forest Research, United Kingdom 3USDA Forest Service, United States 4University of Melbourne; University of New England, Australia Description: Much of the world’s populations live in cities where they rely on the services of healthy urban forests. Keeping city trees healthy is critical for mitigating the effects of heat waves and ensuring communities remain resilient to climate change. However, urban forests are often the front-lines against invasive pest introductions and their general presence in the built environment predisposes them to the effects of climate change. Given the density of people in urban environments, there is enormous opportunity for public engagement to monitor and study tree health. This session will highlight many projects and approaches for engaging communities in urban forest health research globally. Abstracts can be submitted at https://iufro2024.com/call-for-congress-abstracts/ Please feel free to contact me with any questions. We hope to see you there We are grateful for the extension of abstract submission deadline by the congress organizers.
