Call for Papers

The Queensland division of AICCM will host the National Conference
in 2007 which is aiming to attract a larger cross-section of members
by providing a program of papers from across all conservation
specialisations.

As this will be the first large-scale National Conference in several
years the Organising Committee is seeking to encourage members to
participate in an all-inclusive program that will bring the
membership together to share ideas in a broad, open forum.  The
Conference will also include a Special Interest Group (SIG) program
for meetings within the specialisations.

The Organising Committee also aims to publish a high quality
conference pre-print with the assistance of the Publications
Committee.   In order to achieve this the Organising Committee is
now putting out a call for papers. Papers that would be of broader
membership interest that have been presented at SIG events would be
considered along with new papers.  If you are interested in
presenting a paper please prepare an abstract and forward it with
the following information:

Abstract length: up to 250 words Author details: Name, email, postal
address and contact phone numbers Due date: 11 August 2006
