Background
Guest lectures
The program for our workshop is divided in two parts. Before we meet on our workshop in Bogor and Jakarta there will be an introductory seminar with guest lectures held at the University of Göttingen. These presentations will give an introduction to the climate change- policy process and the role of forests in this context. The lectures are open to all interested. For those students who are not in Göttingen and for the international alumni participating in our workshop, a comprehensive abstract will be prepared. We are happy about high level speakers.
