The international conference “Role and Fate of Forest Ecosystems in a Changing World” will be held

in Bangkok on 15-19 January 2024

back-to-back with the 31st biennial conference of the International Union of Forest Research Organizations - Research Group 8.04 on “Air pollution and climate change”.

For the first time, the conference will be held in Southeast Asia, in Thailand, which is particularly vulnerable to climate change and air pollution given its large population, highest biodiversity in the tropical zone, and large number of forest-dependent communities.
