CALL FOR PAPERS
Abstracts for the above conference are now being invited by the Conference Steering Committee.
We encourage papers which explore the following issues:
- What are the potential scenarios of climate change and land use change for African forest regions?
- What do we know about the sensitivity of African forests and their communities to these changes, and what consequences will these changes have for the future of the region?
- How can this knowledge influence policy decisions on development and climate change adaptation?
- What are the gaps in our knowledge and priorities for research?
- At a time of increased global interest in the future of tropical forests, we intend this to be a key international event that synthesises existing knowledge and fosters creative thinking and collaboration on the future of this important region.
