Greetings,

I just received information on the Dec 2012 conference on Conservation Agriculture in SE Asia - http://www.conservation-agriculture2012.org/. A mutual colleague thought that you and people in your network might be interested. As indicated below, the conference organizers are interested in working with potential authors/contributors.

If you maintain a mailing list, would you please add me to the distribution?

Regards,
LeRoy Duvall

Thanks Leroy.  Keep me posted if you need assistance in contacting organizers about late abstract submission.   At least poster is very possible.  I know CIRAD (French scientist partners agency) have scientists from Vietnam make some presentations but we hope we can have more participation from the host country.

Take care,
Manny

I went to the website announcing the conference, http://www.conservation-agriculture2012.org/ and was able to download the call for papers there. Given that the time for abstracts is past, I think it would be difficult to identify and reach to suitable NRCS scientists in a timely manner. If you don't have any Vietnamese contributions and wish to try and solicit papers specific to Vietnam you may want to contact Vern Weitsel and Nguyen Van Duyen as indicated at the bottom of this e-mail.

Thuy, if you go to the website http://www.conservation-agriculture2012.org/ you can read more about the conference and share the information (and the call for papers) with your colleagues in CIFOR and ICRAF.

Regards,
LeRoy

Hi Manny:

Do you still have a call for papers out for Vietnam, or has the deadline already passed?  A colleague is interested.

No word from Adrian regarding my participation or not, but he is also out of the country.

Thanks,
Mike

Subject: FW: Conference / workshop in Vietnam in early 2013

Good morning Michael,

To follow-up on our discussion last week, I sent a "heads up" e-mail to a colleague at CIFOR-Vietnam yesterday to ask about her thoughts on how to distribute a call for papers for a possible conference in Vietnam - if and when the time comes to do so. Her reply is below. Please let me know as the planning develops: IPD should be able to help disseminate a call for papers among the various technical experts at NRCS who are working in areas of interest. I also encourage you to contact Dr. Pham as needed since she is better positioned for addressing Vietnam-specific questions.

I have also sent an e-mail to my friend who has written a number of publications on soils, agriculture/agroforestry, mangroves and forest types in Vietnam. I asked for a list of titles which I will share that with you when I receive it. If necessary I will ask for some translation assistance from a couple of Vietnamese-American colleagues that I have here at NRCS before sending you the list.

Regards,
LeRoy

Dear Leroy,

They can send a call to share with two most popular networks: Vietnam Environmental Network at  Vietnam_Environment_Network at yahoogroups.com<mailto:Vietnam_Environment_Network at yahoogroups.com>. But before they might want to send an email to the moderator  "Nguyen Van Duyen" <duyennv at yahoo.com<mailto:duyennv at yahoo.com>>. This network has memmbers from all people working on environmental issues (including soil) in Vietnam.

They can also send a call to Vern network through vern.weitzel at gmail.com<mailto:vern.weitzel at gmail.com> and ask him to share around with his network which has members (both Vietnamese and international experts) who are working in Vietnam.

They can also send it to me and I can forward to Vietnam Journalism network and ask the journalists to post on their newspaper and websites.

I must admit that I do not work with any soil scientists at the moment but i have contact and friends and past colleagues at NIFS and ICRAF whom I share office with now worked a lot with soil scientists both at university and colleagues at research insititutions so I can ask them to support us as well.

Take care hey

Thuy
