E-lecture and Virtual Roundtable Discussions

We are planning a series of e-lectures and virtual round-table discussions to accommodate those who have been unable to attend our workshops, or who are interested in further discussions. The schedule of events can be viewed here - please contact Yolanda Wiersma if you are interested in participating.

As with the Ottawa workshop, we have prepared a concept paper for discussion at the Fall workshops. Please feel free to download this paper and provide comments, even if you can not attend one of the workshops.


Upcoming Meeting - BC Parks and Protected Areas Research Forum

We are holding a half-day workshop on the relationship between protected areas and sustainable forest management as part of the BC Parks and Protected Areas Research Forum. The workshop will be in the morning of Monday, December 1. Please contact Yolanda Wiersma if you are interested in participating. If you are interested in registration for the BCPARF, then please visit the meeting link here.

Workshop 2

We held our second workshop September 11-12 in Halifax at the Citadel Hotel, focusing on the values associated with protected areas for sustainable forest management, and the range of regulatory and policy tools that can be applied to facilitate the relationship between protected areas and sustainable forest management.

You can find a draft agenda for the workshop using the links below.

Halifax workshop - draft agenda



Workshop 1
The first workshop was held January 22-23, 2008 at the Delta Hotel in Ottawa. You can download the workshop agenda here and visit this link for pictures and the workshop report.

In preparation for the workshop, we have prepared a concept paper outlining some preliminary thoughts. The document will form the basis for much fo the workshop discussion, however, if you are unable to attend, your comments and feedback are still welcome! This is intended to be an organic document and is in no way a definitive summary of the issues surrounding protected areas and sustainable forest management.
