Thanks to our communication officers for the Division, Alessio Collalti with the support of Jean Luc Maeght (both in cc), for setting up this Group. The success of the group and the improvement in our communication channels depend on the effort of each member of the Division including all the colleagues, young researchers, students, experts, stakeholders that we can invite. The group is Public but everybody needs to make a request to become a member – an administrator needs to approve members and posts (we will take care of this) The aim of this FB Group is to improve communication within the Division and beyond while sharing NEWS, publications, events related to forest management and planning, including conservation of forested areas, wildlife, soil sciences, forested landscapes and landscape ecology, conservation biology, biodiversity, and physical environment. We particularly welcome inputs towards a deeper understanding of hazards and disturbances which could affect forest dynamics, such as fire, climate change, pollution and winds. You can share links to webinars and other related events. You can also feed this site with relevant related information from others FB sites. Looking forward to a dynamic exchange to enhance our knowledge and awareness on the importance of forests and the environment The Group is for the Division to make use of it, so please become a member and share the link: https://www.facebook.com/groups/iufro.division.8 Remember! this *Sunday 21st* is the International Day of Forests so please use the opportunity to begin sharing information <https://www.un.org/en/observances/forests-and-trees-day> Looking forward to your inputs My warmest wishes to all Sandra *________________________________________________________________* *Sandra LUQUE PhD, DR HDR* *Director of Research* Chair IUFRO Division 8 - Forest Environment INTECOL *Chair Science Committee* *INRAE* National Research Institute on Agriculture, Food & the Environment *UMR TETIS **Land, environment, remote sensing and spatial information * 500 rue Jean-François Breton / 34093 Montpellier Cedex 5, France Mob. +33 769150689 / Skype: sandra.luque2 • https://www.inrae.fr/en https://www.umr-tetis.fr/index.php/fr/ https://www.iufro.org/ *________________________________________________________________* _______________________________________________ IUFRO Mailing List To post a message to all list members, send email to: div8(a)lists.iufro.org List info and Archive: http://www.iufro.org/science/iufro-mailing-lists/overview/
