REGISTER for the Yale ISTF Conference on Tropical Forests for Sustainable Development from January 28-30, 2016
The January 2016 Conference of the International Society of Tropical Foresters at Yale, Tropical Forests for Sustainable Development: Shaping our Post-2015 Future with Knowledge from the Field, will provide a space for discussions between forest practitioners, researchers and sustainable development policy actors to inform the early implementation of the sustainable development goals and the post-2015 sustainable development agenda. If you are interested in participating in this timely discussion on the role of tropical forests in sustainable development, REGISTER for the conference (http://istf.yale.edu/registration) and share these opportunities with your networks. Tangible products from these discussions will provide much needed documentation of the essential roles tropical forests play in sustainable development issues less typically seen as connected to forest programs, for example, those of poverty alleviation; gender empowerment; food security; energy access; sustainable economic growth, production and consumption; and human well-being.
