Methods for Reduced-Impact Logging : WORKSHOP RESULTS (original) (raw)

Inevitably an international training workshop requires an enormous organizational effort. This is especially true when the participants come from many different countries for which the host country has a variety of visa requirements and in which airline scheduling may be difficult. We want particularly to recognize the efforts of Ms. Lia Wan, CIFOR Travel and Conference Coordinator, and Mrs. Nani Djoko, CIFOR Research Division Secretary. Also, the assistance of Mr. Yahyah Sampurna, CIFOR computer services technician, was essential for the smooth operation of the computer-based instruction and lab exercises. We are also grateful to the entire staff of CIFOR's Administration and Finance Division for their hard work in arranging payments and requisitions, often on short notice. For serving as a field laboratory and providing us a place to stay and do our research in East Kalimantan we want to thank the staff and officers of PT. ITCI (International Timber Corporation Indonesia). Finally, of course, we want to recognize the outstanding contributions of the workshop instructors (Appendix 1), many of whom prepared written lecture notes and exercise materials. Without their expertise and enthusiasm the course would not have been possible.
