Planet under Pressure - New Knowledge towards Solutions

RIHN is co-or-organizing two sessions for the coming symposium “Planet under Pressure” to be held in London during 26-29 March 2012. Current issues of planet assessments and possible solutions with participation of multi-stakeholders are some of the main themes to be discusses during the symposium.

We have received more than 150 abstract for our two sessions and are now in the process of reviewing and setting up our sessions. We are looking forward to your participation to our sessions as well as other various sessions organized during the symposium. Soon we will release our session details with confirmed participants' names here.
