Dear Ladies and Gentlemen,<br>
<br>
we are searching for contributions to an event which will discuss the usage of <br>
<br>
<b>Information Technology for Biodiversity Conservation and Management</b><br>
and <b>Information Technology in Agriculture. </b><br>
<br>
This implies database processing, sensor technologies, and also networking of
organisations and activists.<br>
<br>
The event will be held on January 15th at UNESCO in Paris and is organized by
the European Support Centre of the Club of Rome ( <a
href="http://www.clubofrome.at">http://www.clubofrome.at</a> ) and the project
ICT Ensure ( <a href="http://ict-ensure.tugraz.at">http://ict-ensure.tugraz.at</a>
).<br>
<br>
We would be very grateful if you forwarded this mail to persons in your
organisation who are dealing with the topics and who might be interested to
participate or to contribute with a statement. Please don't hesitate to contact
us for further information.<br>
<br>
Best regards<br>
Thomas Schauer<br>
