Call for talks to the Focali annual meeting, March 13

Welcome to submit your talk for the Focali annual meeting 2025. This year we will engage through speed talks, along with several shorter pitches in addition to the other sessions and time for discussion and networking. For over 15 years Focali has bridged forest, climate, biodiversity and livelihoods research with policy and practice. These safe spaces for mutual learning between disciplines and sectors are more needed than ever. We invite you to join this opportunity for networking and knowledge exchange, to contribute to and benefit from it based on your own insights.
