Upcoming Events

RFRI Seminar Series:
Green Mondays

The RFRI organizational members, in celebration of the 2011 International Year of Forests, are holding the RFRI Seminar Series: Green Mondays from 11:00-12:00 on June 27, 2011 and then every first Monday of the month from July 4, 2011 to February 6, 2012. The seminar series is intended to raise awareness about the value of native forest biodiversity, conservation and sustainable development of “forests for people.” The seminar series will be held in the UP-Diliman Institute of Biology, Room 4105, Pavilion 4. We are also intending to have a live simulcast on www.dilc.upd.edu.ph and rainforestation.ph.

For more information about the seminar series, view schedule (Small graphic of PDF icon, 29.4 kb) or poster (Small graphic of PDF icon, 2.2 MB). The schedule will be updated as presentation abstracts and titles become available.
