[IUFRO RG 7.03 FORENT] Citizen science and forest health mailing-list

Dear colleagues, Following our session at the 25th IUFRO World Congress, we have launched an international mailing-list to connect forest health researchers interested in public engagement (specifically including, but not limited to, citizen science). The purpose of the mailing-list is to connect a global network of project leaders to share resources and ideas. Anyone working in the space between forest health and society is welcome to join. You can join by visiting https://groups.io/g/ForestHealthCitSci or by emailing the address below with a blank message. Note that you* do not* need a groups.io account to subscribe. You can also indicate whether you want to receive email digests or individual emails. - Post: ForestHealthCitSci(a)groups.io - Subscribe: ForestHealthCitSci+subscribe(a)groups.io - Unsubscribe: ForestHealthCitSci+unsubscribe(a)groups.io - Group Owner: ForestHealthCitSci+owner(a)groups.io - Help: ForestHealthCitSci+help(a)groups.io We hope project leaders will use the network to: - share resources and opportunities (guides, publications, data, grant opportunities, jobs, post-grad positions, etc.). - organize events (conference sessions, webinars, working groups, etc.) - collaborate on writing (special issues, commentaries, responses to opinions, popular writing, etc). - provide/seek ideas and guidance in project development and achievement (project design, recruitment, engagement, analyses, training, etc). - and more (anything relevant to public engagement and/or forest health). Thank you for your time and attention. -- *Joey Hulbert* *PhD Candidate, Plant Pathology* Forestry and Agricultural Biotechnology Institute <http://fabinet.up.ac.za>, University of Pretoria. *Affiliate Research Student* Department of Conservation Ecology and Entomology, Stellenbosch University. *Project Leader* Cape Citizen Science <http://citsci.co.za> *Contact* joey.hulbert(a)fabi.up.ac.za Curriculum Vitae: web <https://jmhulbert.github.io> -- This message and attachments are subject to a disclaimer.
