Latsis Symposium 2018 – Scaling-Up Forest Restoration
The Latsis Symposium 2018 brings together leading scientists and practitioners to address the ecological, economic, and societal challenges for scaling-up forest restoration. The symposium is motivated by the challenge of delivering an effective global response to two major environmental threats, climate change and forest degradation through restoration.
The goal of the 2-day symposium is to work towards a conceptual understanding of the challenges and opportunities for scaling-up forest restoration efforts to meet Bonn Challenge targets. Presentations by experts from academia, non-governmental organisations, and the business sector will help to frame and inform discussions on forest restoration approaches. Registration is free of charge and ends on 30 May 2018.

The Organizing Committee is pleased to invite you to Ist Gypsum Ecosystem Research Conference (GERC-2018). The conference will be held from the 3rd – 9th of June 2018 at Ankara University Faculty of Science, Ankara, Turkey.
This conference aims to initiate a series of International Conferences organised as part of the activities of the H2020 GYPWORLD project. It will offer an International forum to interested scientists from around the world to present and discuss research results in all aspects related to GYPSUM ecology.
We believe that the participants who will take part in GERC-2018 will improve their scientific and vocational studies by sharing their knowledge and experience in various fields of Gypsum Ecosystem Research.
The Conference will consist of key speakers plus oral talks and poster presentations providing an ideal background for scientific interactions and interchange of ideas.
