Policy and Systems Modelling Training Workshop

Dear Colleagues
I would like to bring your attention to the following research training workshop

Systems analysis as applied to forest policy and management issues
Research Training Workshop, ENGREF, Nancy, France 19-21 June, 2008

This workshop is designed to provide an introduction to the important concepts in systems analysis and its application to forest policy and management issues. The workshop is designed particularly for young researchers, managers and policy makers, including postgraduate students, who have had limited exposure to policy research, systems thinking and modelling methods. However, it will also be useful for established researchers, including those who may administer rather than conduct projects.

The training workshop will be run in conjunction with the Small-scale Rural Forest Use and Management: Global Policies versus Local Knowledge International Symposium Gérardmer, France, 23-27 June 2008 organised under the auspices of IUFRO 3.08 Small-scale Forestry. The conference website is http://www.uq.edu.au/forestry/index.html. The training workshop follows on from a highly successful systems training workshop held in conjunction with the IUFRO 3.08 conference held in Ormoc, Philippines in June 2007.

Further details can be found in the attached document.

Registrations are due 1 April. To assist planning, potential participants are requested to contact Dr John Herbohn (j.herbohn@uq.edu.au) to indicate their interest in attending the workshop as soon as possible.

Kind regards
John
