XIV World Forestry Congress - Reminder last call for abstracts

Wednesday, 21 January, 2015 - 11:30

Don't miss the fast approaching deadline - Friday 30 January 2015 - to submit your abstract for papers, posters and videos.

The XIV World Forestry Congress will take place 7-11 September 2015 in Durban, South Africa and will be a key occasion for the world’s foresters and forest supporters to gather, to share their expertise and experience, and to project a new vision for the future of forests and forestry.

We welcome abstracts for papers, posters and – for the first time – video presentations on the central theme of the Congress, “Forests and People: Investing in a Sustainable Future”, and on relevant topics that also align with any of the six Congress sub-themes.

We look forward to receiving your submissions and hope to see you in Durban!
