Good news! The deadline to submit abstracts for oral presentations, lightning talks, panels, posters, and workshops for the 3rd Annual FLARE meeting in Stockholm, Sweden, Sept 29 – Oct 2, 2017, has been extended to Tuesday, June 20th! The meeting will cover a wide array of themes related to forests and livelihoods. We will build on past discussions and create new ones.
We are also very excited to announce that Dr. Peter Holmgren, Director-General of the Center for International Forestry Research (CIFOR), will give a keynote presentation at the meeting.
In line with this extension, the abstract submission deadline for thematic reports around two of the FLARE meeting themes (Ethics of forest-livelihood policies, and Forests, livelihoods, and the SDGs) has also been extended to Tuesday, June 20th. These reports are commissioned and co-sponsored by Rights and Resources Initiative. Selected authors will be invited to Stockholm to present the findings of the report.
Notification of decisions will be sent by July 7th and registration will open July 8th. More information can be found in the attached calls and on our webpage:
