IUFRO Event at the Asia-Pacific Forestry Week
Disseminating Scientific Information for Policy and Management
This meeting took place in Hanoi, Vietnam on 25 April, 2008 as parallel event of the first Asia-Pacific Forestry Week. The meeting brought together forest scientists and practitioners from the Asia-Pacific Region to exchange experiences on effective science-policy interactions at international, national and local levels. Three IUFRO-led global initiatives i.e. (a) Capacity Building in Science-policy Interfacing in Developing Countries, (b) the Joint CPF Initiative on Science and Technology and (c) the Global Forest Information Service (GFIS) were presented and discussed.
The event received generous financial support from the Korea Forest Research Institute and contributions in terms of resource persons from members of the Collaborative Partnership on Forests.
