Hi Canadian APECS members,
APECS has been invited by CAFF (Conservation of Arctic Flora and Fauna - www.caff.is) to send a representative to an upcoming meeting of the Circumpolar Biodiversity Monitoring Program (CBMP) Terrestrial Steering Group (TSG) from February 16-18 in Ottawa, Canada. The group is meeting to discuss the implementation of the Arctic Terrestrial Biodiversity Monitoring Plan.
As there is no travel funding available, we are looking for someone in and around Ottawa who would be able to attend the meeting for APECS. Interested members should have a background in Arctic terrestrial ecology / monitoring expertise to attend and contribute to the meeting. It would be ideal to get someone with a bird background but this will not be a limiting factor.
If you are interest in this opportunity, please send a statement of interest explaining your research background and why you would be interested in attending the meeting, as well as your CV to info@apecs.is.
This is very short notice, so the deadline for submitting your application will be on friday 6 February. The final candidate selection will be made by the CBMP Terrestrial Steering Group.
Please contact me anytime if yo have any questions.
Cheers,
Gerlis
