Dear members,
with apologies for cross posting, from the IUFRO LE Urban Forestry
Coordinator:
Dear Friends, I inform you that I am a guest editor of the special
issue of Remote Sensing (MDPI) "Remote Sensing of Urban Forests". I
think it can be a good opportunity to involve colleagues in our
network also in view of the Posadas conference.

Educators Forum webinar Feb 15, 2018
You are invited to join the second webinar of the Educators Forum. This
forum was created to bring together forestry teachers around the world to
share ideas on teaching practices, topical issues in forestry education
along with potential collaborations are highly welcome.
In the mist of climate change and all the pressure of forestry we need to
recognize our role since we are educating our future forestry leaders. Your
participation is extremely important and pertinent.

The <https://www.iufro.org/science/task-forces/forest-education/> Joint
IUFRO-IFSA Task Force on Forest Education is now to entering its second
phase after the successful completion of the inaugural research project (see
<https://foresteducation.wordpress.com/2017/09/20/global-outlook-on-forest-e
ducation/> Global Outlook on Forest Education (GOFE). As we move the GOFE to
its second phase, one of the core aims is to make information on forestry
education globally accessible. A first step toward this aim involves the
creation of a network of forest-related educators facilitating the
dissemination and sharing of best teaching practices.
