Background
Our next DAAD funded workshop will take place along the World Forestry Congress in Durban and Pietermaritzburg, South Africa. Thanks to the funding of DAAD, we are now looking back to a series of very successful student and alumni workshops that bring together DAAD funded international students from our international Master program (TIF) and professionals and alumni from all over the world. For more background information on prior workshops in this series we refer to the Category:DAAD workshops.
Content on this page, including the preliminary workshop program will be developed over the next weeks.
Guest lectures
The program for our workshop is divided in two parts. Before we meet on our workshop in South Africa there will be an introductory seminar with guest lectures held at the University of Göttingen. These presentations will give an introduction to the role of International Forestry Policies and the role of National Forest Data and Information. 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 the high level speakers.
