Dear colleagues,
The
FLARE (Forests and Livelihoods: Assessment, Research, and Engagement) network’s 2nd Annual Meeting aims (1) to advance cutting-edge knowledge and practices regarding forest-based livelihoods, governance, biodiversity, and climate change; (2) increase dialogue and interactions between practitioners and researchers/scholars; and (3) create a global community of practice on forest-livelihood interactions. The meeting will focus on the approaches, methods, tools, and indicators to assess how, where, and why governing forest and forest mosaics for improving livelihoods works, and how it can be strengthened.
We are honored to have Ms. Marina Silva, Former Minister of Environment of Brazil and Ms. Joji Carino, Senior Policy Advisor for Forest Peoples Programme, present keynote presentations at this year’s meeting.
Registration for the meeting and optional workshops is open to presenters and observers through October 31.
Join us!
